New guide helps financial services customers in Brazil navigate cloud requirements

We have a new resource to help our financial services customers in Brazil navigate regulatory requirements for using the cloud. The AWS User Guide to Financial Services Regulations in Brazil is a deep dive into the Brazilian National Monetary Council’s Resolution No. 4,658. The cybersecurity cloud resolution is the first of its kind by regulators in Brazil. The guide details how our services may be able to assist you in achieving these security expectations.

The resolution covers topics such as implementing a cybersecurity policy, incident response, entering into agreements with cloud service providers, subcontracting, business continuity, and notification requirements. Our guide addresses each of these issues and provides specific guidance on how you can use AWS to satisfy requirements.

The AWS User Guide to Financial Services Regulations in Brazil is part of a series of publications that seek to facilitate customer compliance. It’s available in English and Portuguese. We’ll continue to monitor the regulatory environment in Brazil and around the world and to publish additional resources.
