AWS Artifact
#122 · Level 3 · Modern architecture · SecurityConcept
Section titled “Concept”AWS Artifact is a self-service portal for AWS compliance information. From here you can download AWS’s own security and compliance reports, such as SOC and ISO reports. These reports show that AWS’s own infrastructure has been checked by independent auditors. In Artifact you can also review and accept some agreements with AWS, such as the BAA. Keep in mind that this proves AWS’s part; you have to make sure of your own app’s compliance separately.
