When using cryptography to protect data, protocol designers often prefer symmetric keys and algorithms for their speed and efficiency. However, when data is exchanged across an untrusted network such as the internet, it becomes difficult to ensure that only the exchanging parties can know the same key. Asymmetric key pairs and algorithms help to solve […]

In today’s digital landscape, managing secrets, such as passwords, API keys, tokens, and other credentials, has become a critical task for organizations. For some Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers, centralized management of secrets can be a robust and efficient solution to address this challenge. In this post, we delve into using AWS data protection services […]

Mitigate risks like data exposure, model exploits, and ethical lapses when deploying Amazon Bedrock chatbots. Implement guardrails, encryption, access controls, and governance frameworks.

Many customers use Amazon Security Lake to automatically centralize security data from Amazon Web Services (AWS) environments, software as a service (SaaS) providers, on-premises workloads, and cloud sources into a purpose-built data lake in their AWS accounts. With Security Lake, customers can choose between native AWS security analytics tools and partner security information and event […]

This blog post is the second of a two-part series where we show you how to respond to a specific incident by using Amazon Security Lake as the primary data source to accelerate incident response workflow. The workflow is described in the Unintended Data Access in Amazon S3 incident response playbook, published in the AWS […]

As security best practices have evolved over the years, so has the range of security telemetry options. Customers face the challenge of navigating through security-relevant telemetry and log data produced by multiple tools, technologies, and vendors while trying to monitor, detect, respond to, and mitigate new and existing security issues. In this post, we provide […]

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) provides two options for controlling network traffic: network access control lists (ACLs) and security groups. A network ACL defines inbound and outbound rules that allow or deny traffic based on protocol, IP address range, and port range. Security groups determine which inbound and outbound traffic is allowed on a […]

With the introduction of trusted identity propagation, applications can now propagate a user’s workforce identity from their identity provider (IdP) to applications running in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and to storage services backing those applications, such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) or AWS Glue. Since access to applications and data can now be […]

As independent software vendors (ISVs) shift to a multi-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, they commonly adopt a shared infrastructure model to achieve cost and operational efficiency. The more ISVs move into a multi-tenant model, the more concern they may have about the potential for one tenant to access the resources of another tenant. SaaS systems include […]

Securely share sensitive data with time-limited, nonce-enhanced presigned URLs that prevent replay attacks, minimizing exposure risks through granular access controls and rigorous monitoring.
