State, local, and educational (SLED) organizations face evolving compliance mandates like StateRAMP and FISMA. AWS offers a suite of security services designed to help these institutions build secure, scalable, and cost-effective cloud environments.
Key AWS Solutions for Secure Cloud Environments
- Multi-Account Framework With AWS Control Tower
