AWS Secret-West Region is now available

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is excited to announce the launch of our second Secret Region – AWS Secret-West. With this launch, AWS now offers two regions capable of operating mission-critical workloads at the Secret U.S. security classification level. AWS Secret-West places cloud resources in closer proximity to users and mission in the western U.S., delivering enhanced performance for latency-sensitive workloads and improving operational efficiency. Additionally, the region provides customers with multi-region resiliency capabilities and geographic separation to best meet their U.S. Government mission requirements.

Architected for Security and Compliance
Security is the highest priority at AWS. With the AWS Secret-West Region, customers benefit from data centers and network architecture designed, built, accredited, and operated for security compliance with Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) requirements. The region features multiple Availability Zones, providing the high availability, fault tolerance, and resilience that mission-critical workloads require.

Mission Workload Support
The AWS Secret-West Region allows customers to:
• Build and run mission-critical applications with enhanced geographic distribution
• Process and analyze sensitive data across multiple regions
• Deploy robust disaster recovery strategies
• Leverage comprehensive compute and storage solutions located in the western U.S.
• Utilize services authorized at ICD 503 and Department of Defense (DoD) Security Requirements Guide (SRG) Impact Level (IL6) supporting Intelligence Community and Department of Defense authority to operate mission needs.
