Learn about the services offered by AWS Security & Governance:

AWS Security and Governance is a set of practices, technologies, and tools that help customers secure their data and resources in the AWS cloud and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and organizational policies.

AWS provides a comprehensive set of security and governance services and features that enable customers to build and operate secure and compliant workloads on the cloud.

These services and features are designed to provide customers with granular control over their resources, automate security and compliance processes, and provide visibility into their AWS environment.

Here are some key features of AWS Security & Governance,

  • Identity and Access Management (IAM): IAM is a service that enables customers to manage access to AWS resources securely. With IAM, customers/User can create and manage users and groups, and assign permissions to access resources. IAM also allows customers to set up multi-factor authentication (MFA) and integrate with other identity providers.
  • AWS Key Management Service (KMS): KMS is a managed service that makes it easy to create and control encryption keys. KMS enables customers to protect their data by encrypting it with their own keys, and allows customers to manage their own keys or use AWS-managed keys.
  • AWS Certificate Manager (ACM): ACM is a service that makes it easy for customers to provision, manage, and deploy SSL/TLS certificates for use with AWS services. ACM automates many of the tasks involved in obtaining and renewing SSL/TLS certificates, and supports both public and private certificates.
  • AWS Security Hub: Security Hub is a service that provides customers with a comprehensive view of their security posture across their AWS accounts. Security Hub aggregates and prioritizes security findings from various AWS services, such as Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Inspector, and Amazon Macie, and provides customers with actionable insights and remediation guidance.
  • AWS Config: Config is a service that enables customers to assess, audit, and evaluate the configurations of their AWS resources. Config monitors and records changes to AWS resources, and provides customers with a detailed view of the configuration history of their resources. Config also enables customers to enforce compliance policies and automate remediation of noncompliant resources.
  • Amazon CloudWatch: CloudWatch is a monitoring service that provides customers with visibility into their AWS resources and applications. CloudWatch enables customers to monitor resource utilization, application performance, and operational health, and provides real-time and historical insights into their AWS environment.
  • AWS Organizations: Organizations is a service that enables customers to centrally manage and govern their AWS accounts. With Organizations, customers can create and manage groups of AWS accounts, automate account creation and management, and apply policies to enforce security, compliance, and budgetary controls across their AWS environment.
  • Amazon GuardDuty: GuardDuty is a threat detection service that continuously monitors for malicious activity and unauthorized behavior in AWS accounts. GuardDuty analyzes events across AWS accounts and services, and uses machine learning to identify potential threats and anomalies.
  • AWS Firewall Manager: Firewall Manager is a service that enables customers to centrally configure and manage AWS WAF rules across their AWS environment. Firewall Manager enables customers to create and apply WAF rules to multiple resources, and provides visibility and control over their AWS WAF configurations.
  • AWS Config Rules: Config Rules is a service that enables customers to define and enforce policies for their AWS resources. Config Rules provides prebuilt rules and enables customers to create their own custom rules, and automates the evaluation of those rules to ensure compliance with policies.

 

 

Security and Governance in AWS covers a range of areas such as identity and access management, data protection, network security, threat detection and response, compliance management, resource optimization, and operational monitoring.

By adopting AWS Security and Governance best practices and leveraging the available tools and services, customers can improve their overall security posture, reduce operational risks, and ensure compliance with regulations and standards.

There are several benefits of AWS Security & Governance, including:

Enhanced Security: AWS Security & Governance provides customers with a wide range of security features and services that enable them to protect their data and resources from unauthorized access and attacks. These features include encryption, access management, threat detection, and monitoring, among others.

Improved Compliance: AWS Security & Governance helps customers meet their compliance requirements by providing features and services that enable them to enforce policies, monitor compliance, and generate reports. AWS supports a wide range of compliance frameworks, such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR, among others.

Cost Optimization: AWS Security & Governance helps customers optimize their costs by providing features and services that enable them to monitor their resource utilization and identify opportunities for cost savings. For example, AWS Config enables customers to evaluate their resource configurations and identify resources that are not compliant with policies or are underutilized.

Scalability and Flexibility: AWS Security & Governance provides customers with a highly scalable and flexible platform that enables them to adapt to changing business needs and requirements. AWS enables customers to add or remove resources as needed, and provides them with a wide range of services and features that can be customized to meet their specific needs.

Operational Efficiency: AWS Security & Governance provides customers with features and services that enable them to automate their security and governance processes, such as policy enforcement and compliance monitoring. These automation capabilities can help customers reduce their operational costs and improve their operational efficiency.

AWS has also introduced tools that automatically assess potential security risks. Amazon Inspector Read more

With standout responsiveness, Workiy quickly implemented all requested changes. Their flexibility extended to expanding the scope and absorbing extra costs to deliver much needed features. Customers can expect a committed partner that is dedicated to delivering on all client needs. They’re very transparent and use Teamwork. Throughout the project there were around seven change requests and Workiy handled them well. Ravi and the whole Workiy team goes above and beyond to ensure that the customer gets what they need. When we made our scope expansion request, they absorbed about $5,000 of cost since we didn’t have the funding but truly required the feature.

We have been working with Workiy for the last 18 months and have found them to be a reliable and professional supplier. Their proposed consultants are of high quality and are delivered on time as promised. The company is easy to work with and their customer service is responsive and helpful. Overall, we are satisfied with our experience working with Workiy and would recommend them to others.

Workiy has provided great service to Interior Health. Workiy was able to translate our requirements into a website that met our needs. The site has been well received by the Organization and the site owner is happy with the functionality of the Drupal platform. We continue to work closely with Workiey on enhancing the site and they have been very responsive to our requests. They’ve also been very patient as requirements change. They are an active participant in meetings where requirements are being discussed and they regularly show progress on the tasks that have been assigned.

Jonathan Hamelin

I’m the content webmaster for www.interiorhealth.ca, a website rebuilt by Workiy. I’m very satisfied with how the website operates. I had worked with WordPress before, and I love how Drupal’s back-end editing function operates in a similar way, yet overall, the platform is more sophisticated in the features you can introduce. I did not need much training to handle many aspects of the site: uploading files, editing and creating new pages, building landing pages, linking pages to the website menu, going directly into pages and inputting keywords to help their searchability, and creating/add visual blocks to pages.
