Updated AWS SOC Reports Include Three New Regions and Three Additional Services

The updated AWS Service Organization Control (SOC) 1 and SOC 2 Security, Availability, and Confidentiality Reports covering the period of October 1, 2016, through March 31, 2017, are now available. Because we are always looking for ways to improve the customer experience, the current AWS SOC 2 Confidentiality Report has been combined with the AWS SOC 2 Security & Availability Report, making for a seamless read. The updated AWS SOC 3 Security & Availability Report also is publicly available by download.

Additionally, the following three AWS services have been added to the scope of our SOC Reports:

• Amazon CloudWatch Logs
• Amazon SNS
• Auto Scaling

The AWS SOC Reports now also include our three newest regions: US East (Ohio), Canada (Central), and EU (London). SOC Reports now cover 15 regions and supporting edge locations across the globe. See AWS Global Infrastructure for additional geographic information related to AWS SOC.

The updated SOC Reports are available now through AWS Artifact in the AWS Management Console. To request a report:

1. Sign in to your AWS account.
2. In the list of services under Security, Identity and Compliance, choose Artifact. On the next page, choose the report you would like to review. Note that you might need to request approval from Amazon for some reports. Requests are reviewed and approved by Amazon within 24 hours.
