Leaders in education and state and local government know that technology is changing at a rapid pace. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) and other advanced technologies present more opportunities for institutions and agencies to make data-driven decisions, accelerate research, create personalized and convenient student and citizen services, automate processes, and more. But how can you turn these opportunities into reality? That’s the central theme of this year’s AWS IMAGINE conference for education, state, and local leaders presented by Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Cognitive Space is a leading Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner delivering intelligent automation to satellite constellation operations using the CNTIENT platform. The system uses AWS-powered artificial intelligence (AI) decision making to handle highly complex and dynamic satellite tasking requirements, and demanding mission requirements. This blog post provides technical guidance for building and operating mission operation centers (MOCs) on AWS.

About 4.5 million electroencephalogram (EEG) tests are performed in the US each year. That’s more than if every person in Oregon, Connecticut, or Iowa got an EEG. Because they provide insights into brain activity and not just structure, EEGs are one of the most common tests ordered by doctors to help make a diagnosis for people with brain problems. The Brain Data Science Platform (BDSP), hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), is increasing EEG accessibility through cooperative data sharing and research enabled by the cloud.

Managing access to websites and safeguarding users from harmful content is a critical component of a layered cybersecurity approach, especially in educational settings. Schools and institutions of higher learning have a responsibility to provide a secure online experience for their students and staff. Traditionally, this has been accomplished through on-site web filtering appliances. Amazon Web Services ( AWS) Network Firewall allows customers to filter their outbound web traffic from on-premises environments based on fully qualified domain names (FQDN) or Server Name Indication (SNI) for encrypted traffic. This post will use AWS Client VPN to demonstrate routing and filtering traffic from external resources through Network Firewall.

A growing list of educational organizations, including Kaplan, McGraw Hill, New York University (NYU), and Coursera, have turned to CreatorUp to meet the rising demand for online learning. CreatorUp combines an innovative mix of human-powered creatives and generative artificial intelligence (AI) provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help organizations quickly scale their digital content production.

The Department of the Navy (DoN) modified its blanket purchase agreement (BPA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to provide U.S. Navy and Marine Corps Organizations streamlined access to AWS Partners solutions available in AWS Marketplace. AWS Marketplace provides Navy and Marine Corps Organization access to commercial software and services from more than 4,000 trusted providers – accelerating procurement and modernization, improving controls and visibility, and optimizing IT spend.

In this post, we show you how you can push or pull your security telemetry data to the National Cybersecurity Protection System (NCPS) Cloud Log Aggregation Warehouse (CLAW) using Amazon Web Services (AWS) Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) or third-party solutions.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is continuing its collaboration with Defending Digital Campaigns (DDC) to offer more than 20 cybersecurity-related AWS services for low-to-no cost to all active and registered national party committees and federal candidate campaigns.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is investing $4 million to support the work of the HALO Trust and trial the use of artificial intelligence (AI) with drone imagery to locate minefields and other explosive remnants of war in Ukraine. Innovating with AWS will enable HALO to make wider use of the high-resolution drone footage it collects, including testing machine learning (ML) models for identifying mines.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) innovation and inspiration dominated today’s AWS Summit Washington, DC keynote. But there was no shortage of newsworthy moments and key takeaways that extended beyond generative AI. Dave Levy, vice president of Worldwide Public Sector at Amazon Web Services (AWS), delivered the keynote and was joined onstage by three guest speakers who helped him set the tone for the annual two-day event that brings the public sector cloud community together in the nation’s capital.
