AWS Payment Cryptography has expanded its global presence with availability in three new regions – Canada(Montreal), Africa (Cape Town) and Europe (London). This expansion enables customers with latency-sensitive payment applications to build, deploy or migrate into additional AWS Regions without depending on cross-region support. For customers processing payment workloads in Europe, availability in London offers additional options for multi-Region high availability.
AWS Payment Cryptography is a fully managed service that simplifies payment-specific cryptographic operations and key management for cloud-hosted payment applications. The service scales elastically with your business needs and is assessed as compliant with PCI PIN and PCI P2PE requirements, eliminating the need to maintain dedicated payment HSM instances. Organizations performing payment functions – including acquirers, payment facilitators, networks, switches, processors, and banks can now position their payment cryptographic operations closer to their applications while reducing dependencies on auxiliary data centers with dedicated payment HSMs.
AWS Payment Cryptography is available in the following AWS Regions: Canada(Montreal), US East (Ohio, N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland, Frankfurt, London), Africa(Cape Town) and Asia Pacific (Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Mumbai).
To start using the service, please download the latest AWS CLI/SDK and see the AWS Payment Cryptography user guide for more information.
