This blog explores how the University of Sheffield uses AWS Partner RONIN Core and RONIN Isolate solutions to deliver a Trusted Research Environment (TRE) built on AWS infrastructure, enabling secure research and collaboration with sensitive data through the university’s Data Connect service. Secure and compliant infrastructure is essential for sensitive research. Many research institutions use a research Landing Zone to build Secure Research Environments (SRE) that provide the foundational compliance infrastructure—meeting standards like the National Institutes of Health (NIH) NIST 800-171, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and CMMC—upon which TREs like RONIN can build secure research workflows.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Wiz are excited to share that Wiz for Government has achieved a FedRAMP High authorization.

In this post, we provide step-by-step guidance for deploying Malcolm—an open source network traffic analysis suite—natively on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), using the on-demand compute, elasticity, and scalability of AWS to eliminate traditional infrastructure overhead. This approach is particularly beneficial for cost-conscious public sector (federal, state, and local), utility, and industrial customers who require network and security monitoring to deliver on their missions.

We’re excited to announce a significant milestone in our commitment to securing your cloud environments with a new Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) authorization at the Moderate impact level for Tenable Cloud Security—hosted on AWS GovCloud (US). This achievement extends from the existing FedRAMP authorized service of Tenable Government Solutions (also known as Tenable One). Both authorizations underscores Tenable’s dedication to providing best-in-class cloud security for even the most demanding cloud environments.

This post demonstrates how TLS inspection in Network Firewall provides visibility into encrypted traffic, even when browsers implement Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) or when SNI fields contain modified information.

AWS recommends that organizations prepare to recover workloads in case of cybersecurity incidents or business continuity events such as technical or natural disasters. In this post, we offer guidance and strategies for public sector organizations to use AWS infrastructure to operate resilient systems in the cloud.

Macquarie University today announced a significant advancement in its digital transformation journey, partnering with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to create a modern, cloud-first environment that will revolutionize its technology infrastructure and services delivery.

Today, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is announcing two new AWS WickrGov offerings designed to help customers rapidly deploy secure communications capabilities across their organizations.

In today’s rapidly evolving security landscape, the technological edge isn’t just an advantage—it’s a necessity. We’re thrilled to share a milestone that will transform how our government customers harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI): AWS is the first cloud provider to achieve FedRAMP High and Department of Defense (DoD) Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide Impact Level 4 and 5 authorizations for Anthropic’s Claude and Meta’s Llama AI foundation models.
