As government agencies and public sector organizations modernize their IT and migrate to the AWS Cloud, the ability to gain a full, clear view of the security of their environments is a primary challenge they experience. This lack of visibility leads to blind spots and gaps in their security posture, leaving opportunity for security issues to arise. As a result, AWS developed a new open source Self-Service Security Assessment (with ransomware analysis modules) tool that provides customers with a point-in-time assessment to quickly gain valuable insights into the security posture of their AWS account.

Until we can meet again, we’ve curated a collection of the top AWS re:Inforce 2019 sessions for security and compliance professionals in the public sector. These sessions answer the compliance questions you were afraid to ask, share ways to harness diversity in your security organization, explore how AWS security services can help encrypt data, manage security alerts, and automate compliance.

Health and human services (HHS) agencies are in the midst of dramatic change, with ever-growing transaction volumes and increasing demand for new services and visibility into data.
