National security and defense depend upon close collaboration between international allies. To protect sensitive data and promote robust cybersecurity frameworks, organizations must consider one another’s compliance requirements. One such requirement is the United States International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), which restricts and controls the export of defense and military-related technologies in order to safeguard US national security. Here, we set out how an innovation called Trusted Secure Enclaves (TSE) on Amazon Web Services (AWS) allows non-US national organizations who want to use the most modern and innovative technology to deliver defense and security missions using the cloud can do this and be compliant.

In an earlier post, Build secure and scalable data platforms for the European Health Data Space (EHDS) with AWS, we discussed a reference architecture for building secure and scalable data platforms for secondary usage of health data in alignment with the European Health Data Space (EHDS) using Amazon Web Services (AWS). This follow-up post walks you through the technical implementation details for building such federated data governance and analysis platforms using AWS. Whether you are a healthcare organization, technology provider, or systems integrator, this post aims to equip you with the technical knowledge to build a secure data platform for secondary usage of health data in alignment with the EHDS Regulation.

The healthcare industry is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and connected care devices. This digital revolution promises to improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and enhance the overall healthcare experience. However, it also introduces new challenges in terms of cybersecurity, privacy, and regulatory compliance. To navigate this complex landscape, healthcare organizations are turning to scalable, affordable, and highly available cloud infrastructures such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) to build resilient, secure, and innovative solutions.

Today, generative artificial intelligence (AI) is at the core of many of the decisions and technologies businesses across the globe are implementing. The linchpin to ensuring that generative AI is effective depends on the foundation models (FMs) storing the data. To make sure that those FMs are pulling the correct data, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has developed a solution through Amazon Bedrock to generate SQL to answer user questions about the data. The solution was developed to support the Federal Institute of São Paulo (IFSP) and has optimized their decision-making.

Precision medicine is a data-driven approach that considers individual variations in genetics to allow healthcare professionals to more accurately predict, prevent, diagnose, or treat different groups of people. As part of ongoing research to advance genomic research in Singapore, companies like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Illumina play a pivotal role in genome sequencing and analysis, and providing the tools and technology needed to analyse large-scale genomic datasets to help decode the risk factors for certain Asian-specific chronic diseases.

From training to supporting the front line, Amazon Web Services (AWS) can provide solutions to help solve the challenges that formations, units, and allies face. More than just providing computer and storage capability in the cloud, AWS can help intelligence, planning and operations teams leverage newer, cost-effective artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), analytics, simulations, and other technologies.

As federal agencies strive to enhance digital services and create a seamless customer experience, integrating robust identity and access management (IAM) solutions has become paramount. Amazon Cognito, a robust user identity management service offered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), provides a secure and scalable solution for managing user authentication and authorization. When combined with Login.gov, a trusted identity platform developed by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), federal agencies can unlock a powerful combination that streamlines user access while maintaining the highest levels of security and compliance.

With the Internet of Things (IoT), selecting the right communication protocol ensures efficient data exchange and seamless connectivity between devices and the cloud. With a multitude of IoT protocols available, choosing the one that best suits your specific use case can be challenging. In this blog, we explore four common protocols used to connect IoT devices to the cloud and shed light on when and where to deploy them for optimal results.

Healthcare organizations worldwide are leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) and partner solutions to modernize, transform, and innovate their businesses. Ensuring the availability and security of critical applications is paramount. For example, two renowned German medical facilities, Fachklinikum Mainschleife and Max Grundig Klinik, needed to modernize their IT infrastructure to comply with stringent regulatory requirements outlined in the country’s Law for Accelerating the Digitalization of Healthcare (DigiG). Reliable and compliant service offerings from AWS enabled the medical facilities to provide reliable access to essential systems.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) Ground Station is a cloud-based service that provides you with an opportunity to perform communication sessions with your satellite without spending a fortune on your own ground station infrastructure. AWS Ground Station balances between providing a ready-made solution and tailoring the service to meet the unique needs of each customer. One of the ways to customize the service is to use customer-provided ephemerides (CPE) for antenna targeting.
