Malcolm is a powerful, open source network traffic analysis tool suite created by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to aid public and private sector customers in improving their network security monitoring and incident response. Malcolm is most commonly used for incident response, network monitoring, threat hunting, training, and research, but can be adapted for other use cases. In this post, we introduce you to the key components of Malcolm on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS).

The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (Cyber Centre) was established in 2018 under Canada’s National Cyber Security Strategy. The Cyber Centre is the nation’s centralized source for expert cybersecurity advice, services, and support. Its crucial mission involves protecting Canada’s critical cyber assets, including federal government systems. One of the Cyber Centre’s notable innovations is Assemblyline, an open source malware detection and analysis tool available to the cybersecurity community and now others on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace.

On September 11, 2024, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced the launch of the Provincial and Municipal Cyber Grant Program across Canada at the AWS Summit in Toronto. To help provincial and municipal governments implement cloud-based cybersecurity solutions, AWS is investing $5 million CAD in AWS credits to new and existing AWS customers.

The­ Digital Transformation Hub (DxHub) at California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) in San Luis Obispo – powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and part of the AWS Cloud Innovation Centers (CIC) program – collaborated with the City of San Diego and the San Diego Cyber Center of Excellence (CCOE) to create ‘My eCISO,’ a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-based application that propels public and private organizations on a path to cyber resiliency. This post explores the technology behind My eCISO and its implications for organizations looking to protect against attacks.

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.

K12 leaders need tangible solutions and tactics for improving their school’s or district’s cyber-resilience in the coming school year, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) is committed to supporting schools and districts as they enhance the cybersecurity of their networks. Recently, AWS joined the White House, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Department of Education—among other leaders in the government and education community—to commit to improving the cybersecurity resilience of K12 education. As part of this commitment, AWS created the K12 Cyber Grant Program, offering up to $20 million in AWS Promotional Credits to both new and existing K12 customers.

Digital engineering fundamentally relies on integrating data across model structures by using a digital thread – an underlying framework for integrating data from across traditionally siloed functions that create a consolidated view of the system’s data throughout its lifecycle. The cloud is integral to digital engineering by supporting collaboration across geographically dispersed organizations, automating workflows for data connectivity and trade space analysis in a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective manner. This post describes how Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) has used digital engineering in combination with secure and scalable AWS services, to deliver secure IT systems to a large defense program.

Today, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced the launch of the K12 Cyber Grant Program across Canada. To help public schools across Canada implement cloud-based cybersecurity solutions, AWS is investing $5 million CAD in AWS promotional credits to new and existing AWS customers. This program will allow school boards to improve their security posture and advance their ransomware protection. AWS has been architected to be the most flexible and secure cloud computing environment available today and our cloud infrastructure is secure by design and secure by default.

In the digital age, universities face increasing cyber threats that put valuable data at risk. The University of New South Wales (UNSW) is taking proactive measures to address this growing concern. Read this blog post to learn how UNSW is collaborating with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to modernize its IT infrastructure and bolster cybersecurity defenses as part of its cloud transformation program.

Amazon Web Services is proud to join senior decision-makers and thought leaders from around the world at the Munich Security Conference (MSC) from February 16-18. At MSC 2024, we’re restating our commitment to protecting the defense and national security of the US, its closest allies, and other like-minded countries around the world.
