AWS manages over a thousand security controls to provide a secure environment for our customers. The AWS virtual infrastructure is designed to provide optimum availability while ensuring customer security, privacy, and segregation. AWS’s highly secure data centers use state-of-the-art electronic surveillance and multi-factor access control systems and maintain strict, least-privileged-based access authorizations. Our environmental systems are designed to minimize the impact of disruptions to operations, and our multiple Regions and Availability Zones allow customers to remain resilient in the face of most failure modes.
Remember that security is a shared responsibility between AWS and the AWS Partner/customer. While AWS is responsible for protecting the infrastructure that runs all of the services offered in the AWS Cloud, AWS Partners/customers control how they architect and secure their applications and data on the AWS Cloud. In addition, AWS provides security documentation that shows how to configure AWS services to meet security and compliance objectives.
The following subsections provide further information on some of our most-inquired-about aspects of security. More information about security and responsibilities is available on our AWS Cloud Security and AWS Security Documentation webpages.
8.5. Granting and Managing Account Access
You can find more information in the RFx Aid – Access Control.
Identity and access management are key parts of an information security program, ensuring that only authorized and authenticated users are able to access customers’ resources, and only in a manner that customers intend. Using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), customers can create and manage AWS users and groups, assign them security credentials (e.g., access keys, passwords, and multi-factor authentication [MFA] devices), and use permissions to allow and deny their access to AWS resources. Customers can also request temporary security credentials for users who only require short-term access.
8.5.1. IAM Users
An IAM user is an entity that the customer creates in AWS. The IAM user represents the person or service who uses the IAM user to interact with AWS. A user in AWS consists of a name, a password to sign into the AWS Management Console, and up to two access keys that can be used with the API or CLI.
When the customer creates an IAM user, they grant it permissions either by making it a member of a group that has appropriate permission policies attached (recommended) or by directly attaching policies to the user. The customer can also clone the permissions of an existing IAM user, which automatically makes the new user a member of the same groups and attaches all the same policies.
A root user is a single sign-in identity that has complete access to all AWS Cloud services and resources in the account. It is a security best practice to not use the root account because of its complete access. Instead, create individual users and grant them each the minimum amount of privilege necessary, which is known as least privilege. Note that all users have zero privileges by default. Customers can manage users’ privilege by individual user or by groups.
8.5.2. IAM Groups
An IAM user group is a collection of IAM users. Customers can use groups to specify permissions for a collection of users, which can make those permissions easier to manage for those users. For example, a customer could have a group called Admins and give that group
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 29
the types of permissions that administrators typically need. Any user in that group automatically has the permissions that are assigned to the group. Note that a group is not truly an identity because it cannot be identified as a Principal in a resource-based or trust policy. It is only a way to attach policies to multiple users at one time.
8.5.3. IAM Roles
An IAM role is very similar to a user, in that it is an identity with permission policies that determine what the identity can and cannot do in AWS. However, a role does not have any credentials (password or access keys) associated with it. Instead of being uniquely associated with one person, a role is intended to be assumable by anyone who needs it. An IAM user can assume a role to temporarily take on different permissions for a specific task. A role can be assigned to a federated user who signs in by using an external identity provider instead of IAM.
AWS uses details passed by the identity provider to determine which role is mapped to the federated user.
8.5.4. Identity Federation
With Identity Federation, customers can use single sign-on (SSO) to access their AWS accounts using credentials from their corporate directory. Federation uses open standards such as Security Assertion Markup Language 2.0 (SAML) to exchange identity and security information between an identity provider and an application.
8.5.5. Setting Granular Permissions
Access control policies are attached to users, groups, and roles to assign permissions to AWS resources. By default, IAM users, groups, and roles have no permissions; users with sufficient permissions must use a policy to grant the desired permissions.
Using policies, customers can specify several layers of permission granularity. First, customers can define specific AWS service actions they wish to allow or explicitly deny access to. Second, depending on the action, they can define specific AWS resources upon which the actions can be performed. Third, customers can define conditions to specify when the policy is in effect (for example, if MFA is enabled or not).
8.5.6. Temporary Security Credentials
Customers can use the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) to create and provide trusted users with temporary security credentials that can control access to their AWS resources.
Temporary security credentials are short-term and are not stored with the user; rather, they are generated dynamically and provided to the user when requested.
8.6. Tools for Logical Separation
AWS Cloud services and features that provide logical separation are enough to meet most security requirements, despite legacy requirements for physical separation. Amazon VPC, for example, allows customers to define and provision their own logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud. Amazon VPC provides a networking layer for Amazon EC2, a service that provides compute capacity within the AWS Cloud. Each Amazon VPC is logically separated from other virtual networks on the AWS Cloud, and it allows customers to launch their resources into an IP address range that they determine.
Within a VPC, customers can create subnets, each with an associated route table. They can configure these route tables to control network traffic. Customers can attach an internet gateway
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 30
to their VPC, allowing their Amazon EC2 instances to communicate with the public internet.
Customers can also create private subnets that only allow their Amazon EC2 instances to communicate with each other. Our Amazon VPC User Guide provides several example scenarios for building both public and private subnets.
In addition, AWS offers services like VPC Peering, AWS Transit Gateway, and AWS PrivateLink, which allow VPCs to communicate with each other and with other services on the AWS Cloud both securely and privately.
8.7. Tools for Encryption
All AWS Cloud services that store customer data offer the ability to encrypt that data. By defining an encryption approach, customers can provide protection for their content against unauthorized users and against unnecessary exposure to authorized users. The combination of AWS Key Management Service (KMS) and AWS CloudHSM is the centerpiece of a rigorous encryption solution.
AWS KMS helps customers manage encryption keys and integrates with many AWS Cloud services. This service provides durable, secure, and redundant storage for customers’ master keys. Customers can define their key aliases as well as key-level policies. The policies help define key administrators as well as key users. For example, a secret management system can be the only system that has access to the master key that encrypts the secrets for storage.
AWS CloudHSM is a cloud-based hardware security module (HSM) that allows customers to easily generate and use their own encryption keys on the AWS Cloud. It helps customers meet corporate, contractual, and regulatory compliance requirements for data security by using Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 3 validated HSMs.
8.7.1. Protecting Data at Rest
Multiple AWS Cloud services provide built-in integration with AWS KMS to allow easy encryption of data. Amazon S3 allows customers to encrypt content by selecting a KMS key on object upload. Amazon EBS allows customers to choose a KMS key to encrypt a block storage volume or Amazon Machine Image (AMI) copy operation. Amazon RDS allows customers to choose an encryption key for encrypting DB instance storage at rest (including backup snapshots).
Customers also have the option of implementing their own encryption-at-rest approach. For example, they can encrypt content before storing in an AWS Cloud service. Amazon S3 provides the facility to upload an already encrypted object. It also provides the ability to upload an object along with an encryption key that’s used in-memory to encrypt an object. To retrieve the object, the customer must supply the same key.
8.7.2. Protecting Data in Transit
When protecting data in transit, selecting secure protocols that implement the latest in cryptography standards such as Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a common best practice.
AWS Cloud services provide HTTPS endpoints using TLS for communication, thus providing encryption in transit when communicating with the AWS APIs. The customer has full control over their computing resources to implement encryption in transit across their services.
Additionally, the AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) service allows customers to manage and deploy public and private certificates for their workloads. They can also leverage virtual private network (VPN) connectivity into their VPC or across VPCs to facilitate encryption of traffic.
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 31
8.8. Automating Security and Compliance
AWS offers a variety of security tools that customers can use to secure the applications they build on the AWS Cloud. These includes AWS CloudTrail and AWS CloudWatch for logging and monitoring, Amazon GuardDuty for threat detection, and AWS Shield for DDoS protection. Our Security, Identity, and Compliance on AWS page provides a more complete listing and details on the myriad services we offer. Customers can use these tools—and the tools of our AWS Partners—to automate security.
8.9. Penetration Testing
AWS customers are responsible for all scanning, penetration testing, file integrity monitoring, and intrusion detection for their Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon RDS databases, and various other applications. (Refer to the Penetration Testing page for terms of service regarding penetration testing.) Penetration tests should include customer IP addresses and not AWS endpoints. AWS endpoints are tested as part of AWS compliance vulnerability scans.
8.10. Data Breaches
Both AWS and customers (and any AWS Partners they engage) have responsibilities to respond to a data breach. AWS customers and AWS Partners retain the responsibility to monitor their own environment for privacy breaches. The AWS SOC reports provide an overview of the controls that are in place to monitor the AWS managed environment.
We recommend that customers and AWS Partners consider implementing the following best practices to protect against and detect security breaches:
• Use encryption to secure data.
• Configure AWS Cloud services to keep data secure. AWS provides information on how to secure resources in our security documentation.
• Implement least privilege permissions for access to resources and data. • Use monitoring tools like Amazon CloudWatch to track when data is accessed and by whom.
• Review AWS’s Best Practices for Security, Identity, and Compliance page for additional information on how to protect against and detect security breaches.
AWS Partners and customers are responsible for reporting incidents involving customer storage, virtual machines, and applications (for more information, refer to our Vulnerability Reporting page). AWS maintains the AWS Security Bulletins webpage to notify customers of security and privacy events affecting AWS Cloud services. Customers can subscribe to the Security Bulletin RSS Feed to keep abreast of security announcements on the Security Bulletin webpage. The customer support team maintains a Service Health Dashboard webpage to alert customers to any broadly impacting availability issues.
9. AWS Training and Certification
You can find more information in RFx Aid – AWS Training and Development.
AWS recommends that AWS Partners incorporate cloud training into migration or significant cloud initiatives. Industry studies show that comprehensively trained customers are more successful relative to their peers in implementing cloud, so we provide guidance below that AWS Partners can use when they are seeking to train government customers.
17.H.

9.1. Benefits of Training and Certification
AWS Training & Certification offers the cloud skills enablement resources that government entities need to modernize their agencies; create a culture of innovation; and attract, develop, and retain cloud talent. AWS works closely with AWS Partners to develop a workforce development plan to build cloud computing capabilities based on training needs. Leveraging AWS Training and Certification for organizational training can help accomplish the following:
• Achieve Cloud Adoption Goals Sooner: Organizations with comprehensive training adopt cloud technology faster than those who do not take advantage of a comprehensive training program. This helps move projects forward, get to market faster, drive revenue, and capitalize on the cost savings associated with AWS. • Gain Stakeholder Buy-In: AWS Training will help orient and familiarze teams with cloud initiatives. The Train to Accelerate Your Cloud Strategy whitepaper presented by the International Data Corporation (IDC) found that comprehensively-trained organizations were 4.4 times more likely to overcome operational and performance concerns. This means less time spent on stakeholder alignment and more time spent on innovation and business growth.
• Improve Employee Productivity: The IDC’s whitepaper also found that decision makers within comprehensively-trained organizations are 4.7 times more likely to agree that cloud technology can improve IT staff productivity. AWS Training helps teams become more productive by using the cloud.
9.2. Approach to Training and Workforce Development
AWS is investing hundreds of millions of dollars to provide free cloud computing training to 29 million people around the world by 20251
. AWS and its partners can provide a comprehensive
curriculum to organizations that need foundational technology upskilling and cloud computing training.
Our approach to workforce development typically begins in the classroom but must extend to solving real-world business and technology challenges. It constitutes a learning continuum across three building blocks: Learn, Explore, and Apply. Each phase can be customized to optimize the learning path for the specific organization’s growth. We illustrate each of these phases in Figure 8 below.

AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 33
Figure 8: Phases of Learning Continuum
• Learn: Focuses on traditional classroom (or virtual training) that educates students how to build on, secure, operate, and manage AWS services, supplemented by self-paced and on-demand digital training that can be consumed at any time. • Explore: Tailors learning opportunities to the agency’s environment and builds on base knowledge and skills though targeted and more focused interactive learning modalities. • Apply: Dives into building proofs of concept (POCs) and solutions that solve agencyspecific business and technology challenges.
9.3. Learning Needs Analysis
For customers with significant training needs for end-customers, AWS Partners can work with an AWS Training Lead to conduct a Learning Needs Analysis as described below.
AWS Training and Certification offers a no-cost self-assessment survey known as the Learning Needs Analysis (LNA). The LNA helps identify AWS skill gaps and recommends organizational and individual training plans to address these gaps. The LNA helps optimize training investments and acquire critical skills more quickly. This can be especially useful for scenarios involving large customers who can have large numbers of employees participate.
The LNA is a two-step process:
1. Complete the self-assessment survey: Individuals in the organization complete a self-assessment, which measures cloud knowledge and skill across multiple functional areas. The survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete.
2. Review skills gaps and training plans: AWS identifies skill gaps and generates training plans based on survey results.
Once organizations complete the LNA, AWS Training Experts, Specialists, and Solution Architects can customize training, workshops, and deep dives specialized for their industry. We then support delivery of our customized offerings both digitally and onsite.

10.1. Certifications and Attestations
Certifications and attestations are performed by a third-party independent auditor. Our certifications, audit reports, and attestations of compliance are based on the results of the auditor’s work. AWS offers its customers comprehensive compliance controls, and supports more security standards and compliance certifications than any other offering. We help customers satisfy compliance requirements for virtually every regulatory agency around the globe, including PCI-DSS, HIPAA/HITECH, FedRAMP, GDPR, FIPS 140-2, and NIST 800-171.
A list of the most frequently requested certifications in the US state, local, and education market includes:
• Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), • Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS),
• International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2015, • ISO/International Electrotechnical Comission (IEC) 27001:2013, • ISO/IEC 27018:2019,
• Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), • System and Organization Control (SOC) Reports.
For more information about these certifications, see Appendix C. The full list of certifications and attestations can be found at https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/.
10.2. Laws, Regulations, and Privacy
AWS customers remain responsible for following applicable compliance laws and regulations. In some cases, AWS offers functionality (such as security features), enablers, and legal agreements (such as the AWS Data Processing Agreement and Business Associate Addendum) to support customer compliance. No formal certification is available to (or distributable by) a CSP like AWS within these law and regulatory domains. The following subsections provide details on the laws, regulations, and privacy considerations that AWS Partners ask about most often. These include:
• Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)
• Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA)/ Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH)
• Internal Revenue Service Publication 1075 (IRS Pub 1075) • Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT)/Section 508
10.2.1. FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 was enacted to support and promote the protection of privacy and reasonable governance of student education records.
FERPA provides parents of students and eligible students with the following:
• The right to inspect and review their education records • Governance over disclosure of their education records • A mechanism to amend incorrect education records
FERPA requires states to use reasonable methods to ensure the security of their IT solutions.
This may be achieved by hosting education records on cloud computing solutions. The law, in general, requires covered institutions and agencies to reasonably safeguard student education
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 38
records from improper use or disclosure. Securing student record information, including students’ personally identifiable information (PII), is essential for educational institutions and vendors that provide services which fall under the purview of FERPA.
AWS and FERPA: AWS implements physical and logical controls for internal services and provides robust offerings externally for customers to leverage in order to comply with FERPA.
These controls are discussed in detail in our FERPA Compliance on AWS whitepaper.
FERPA for AWS Partners: Because FERPA was authored in 1974, it lacks clear guidance on modern technology use, which means that educational institutions are often left to create their own solutions. As part of this solution, customers are encouraged to take steps such as creating device compliance policies, threat protection plans, and data loss prevention plans that suit their organization to protect sensitive information. In addition, customers are encouraged to use encryption and access controls. Access controls also provide auditing and logging capabilities to customers in order to validate privacy and data protection policies that customers have in place.
AWS offers a comprehensive set of features and services to make encryption of PII easy to manage and simpler to audit, including AWS KMS. Customers with FERPA compliance requirements have a great deal of flexibility in how they meet encryption requirements for PII.
10.2.2. HIPAA/HITECH
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) legislation is designed to make it easier for US workers to retain health insurance coverage when they change or lose their jobs.
This legislation also encourages electronic health records to improve the efficiency and quality of the US healthcare system through improved information sharing. Along with increasing the use of electronic medical records, HIPAA includes provisions to protect the security and privacy of protected health information (PHI).
Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) expanded the HIPAA rules in 2009. HIPAA and HITECH together establish a set of federal standards that are intended to protect the security and privacy of PHI.
10.2.2.1. AWS and HIPAA
There is no HIPAA certification for a CSP such as AWS. In order to meet the HIPAA requirements applicable to our operating model, AWS aligns our HIPAA risk management program with FedRAMP and NIST 800-53, which are higher security standards that map to the HIPAA Security Rule. NIST supports this alignment and has issued SP 800-66: An Introductory Resource Guide for Implementing the HIPAA Security Rule, which documents how NIST 800-53 aligns to the HIPAA Security Rule.
Under the HIPAA regulations, AWS is considered a business associate. The BAA is an AWS contract that is required under HIPAA rules to ensure that AWS appropriately safeguards PHI.
The BAA also serves to clarify and limit, as appropriate, the permissible uses and disclosures of PHI by AWS, based on the relationship between AWS and our customers, and the activities or services being performed by AWS.
AWS has a standard BAA we present to customers for signature. This BAA accounts for the unique services AWS provides and accommodates within the AWS Shared Responsibility Model. To review, accept, and manage the status of the BAA for a specific account, sign in to AWS Artifact. Note that some AWS Artifact documentation is available under NDA, and use of the content is subject to the terms of that NDA.

10.2.2.2. HIPAA for AWS Partners
AWS helps covered entities and their business associates use the secure AWS environment to process, maintain, and store PHI.
For detailed information about how to use AWS for the processing and storage of health information, see the whitepaper Architecting for HIPAA Security and Compliance on Amazon Web Services.
10.2.3. IRS Pub 1075
Internal Revenue Service Publication 1075 (IRS Pub 1075) provides guidance for US government agencies and their agents to protect Federal Tax Information (FTI).
While the IRS does not publish an official designation or certification for compliance with IRS Pub 1075, AWS supports organizations to protect FTI managed on the AWS Cloud by aligning our implementations of NIST 800-53 and FedRAMP security controls with the respective IRS Pub 1075 security requirements. AWS has worked closely with the IRS to ensure that the AWS GovCloud (US) and AWS US East/West Regions meet Pub 1075 requirements for storing and processing FTI. Refer to Appendix C.1 for information on AWS and FedRAMP security controls.
10.2.4. VPAT/Section 508
In 1998, the US Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities.
Inaccessible technology interferes with an individual’s ability to obtain and use information quickly and easily. Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers in information technology (IT), make available new opportunities for people with disabilities, and encourage development of technologies that will help achieve these goals.
The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic IT. Under Section 508 (29 U.S.C. § 794 (d)), agencies must give disabled employees and members of the public access to information that is comparable to the access available to others. Because Section 508 is a federal and state requirement, any and all of AWS government customers will have Section 508 compliance needs.
10.2.4.1. AWS and VPAT/Section 508
AWS provides multiple interfaces to its cloud computing services, including application programming interfaces (APIs), software development kits (SDKs), integrated development environment (IDE) toolkits, and command line tools.
To address accessibility requirements, AWS offers the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), a unified tool that provides a consistent, text-based interface to interact with all parts of AWS. With just one tool, users can control services from the command line and automate them through scripts. The AWS CLI can be used by customers with a diverse range of needs, including those who use assistive technology such as Job Access with Speech (JAWS), Nonvisual Desktop Access (NVDA), and alternative input devices.
An Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) was performed for the AWS CLI by completing Voluntary Product Accessibility Template® (VPAT) Version 2.3 in March 2019. The ACR provides assessments against Section 508 requirements and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level A and AA requirements.
AWS also offer an alternative for users who prefer a graphical user interface. AWS ElasticWolf Client Console is a client-side application with an easy-to-use interface that is compatible with
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 40
assistive technologies such as JAWS, ZoomText, Orca, alternative input devices, and NVDA.
Examples of its accessible design include semantically-marked up form field labels, visible and semantically-marked up button labels, and keyboard accessible content.
AWS ElasticWolf Client Console integrates with the AWS CLI and can manage AWS resources in all AWS Regions. It provides access to many foundational and widely-used AWS services, including AWS CloudFormation, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), Amazon EMR, Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), Amazon Route 53, Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS), and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3).
An ACR was performed for AWS ElasticWolf Client Console by completing VPAT Version 2.3 in March 2020. The ACR, performed for both Windows and Linux versions, provides assessments against Section 508 requirements and WCAG 2.0 Level A and AA requirements. The ACR is available through AWS Artifact.
10.3. Alignments/Frameworks
Compliance alignments and frameworks include published security or compliance requirements for a specific purpose, such as a specific industry or function. AWS provides functionality (such as security features) and enablers (including compliance playbooks, mapping documents, and whitepapers) for these types of programs.
Requirements under specific alignments and frameworks may not be subject to certification or attestation; however, some alignments and frameworks are covered by other compliance programs. The following subsections provide details on the alignments and frameworks that AWS Partners ask about most frequently.
10.3.1. Criminal Justice Information Services
Criminal Justice Information (CJI) refers to the data necessary for law enforcement agencies to perform their mission and enforce the laws, such as biometric, identity history, person, organization, property, and case/incident history data. CJI also refers to data necessary for civil agencies to perform their mission, including data used to make hiring decisions.
The Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policy reflects the shared responsibility between Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) CJIS, CJIS Systems Agency, and the State Identification Bureaus (SIB) of the lawful use and appropriate protection of CJI. The CJIS Security Policy provides a baseline of security requirements for current and planned services and establishes a minimum standard for new initiatives.
10.3.1.1. AWS and CJIS
By using solutions built on AWS, agencies can manage and secure their applications, data, and other CJIS resources in the AWS GovCloud (US). AWS GovCloud (US) Regions consist of US data centers hosting services authorized to FedRAMP High, managed by US citizens, and offering the FIPS validated endpoints necessary to build CJIS-compliant solutions.
Technological advancements have removed the need to engage in the traditional method of relying on physical security and background checks as a way to qualify an individual’s “access” to unencrypted CJI. While the traditional approach can help achieve minimum compliance under the CJIS Security Policy, it doesn’t compare to the security that can be achieved using strong encryption practices and the deployment of “least privilege” principles to restrict CJI access to those with a need-to-know, right-to-know, and explicit authorization.
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 41
10.3.1.2. CJIS for AWS Partners
Properly securing CJI and maintaining compliance with the CJIS Security Policy requires a number of security controls aimed at ensuring only authorized individuals have access to the CJI.
One critical control is the use of independently tested and validated encryption to protect sensitive information both in-transit and at-rest, regardless of physical location. AWS empowers customers and partners to encrypt their criminal justice data in AWS GovCloud (US) employing FIPS 140-2 validated encryption in-transit services and FIPS-197 compliant encryption for data at-rest. AWS GovCloud (US) also offers AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) using FIPS 140-2 validated hardware security modules, allowing customers to create, own, and manage their own customer master keys for all encryption. These customer master keys never leave the AWS KMS FIPS validated hardware security modules unencrypted and are never known to AWS personnel.
Another critical control involves limiting access to individuals who hold or manage encryption keys, allowing agencies to define and limit the universe of users with logical access to CJI. The principal of least privilege is one of the most fundamental underpinnings of the CJIS Security Policy based on a “need-to-know, right-to-know” standard. AWS GovCloud (US) customers can enforce least privilege by securely encrypting their CJI and limiting all access to the CJI to only those with access to the encryption keys. By using AWS GovCloud (US), customers are provided AWS Cloud services, tools, and security assurance to enable them to retain complete control and ownership over their own criminal justice data.
See our webpage, Using AWS for Criminal Justice Information Solutions, for additional information.
10.3.2. Cloud Security Alliance
Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) is a not-for-profit organization that aims to promote security assurance within cloud computing using reliable and recommended processes and practices, and to educate on the uses of cloud computing to help secure all other forms of computing.
10.3.2.1. AWS and CSA
AWS participates in the voluntary CSA Security, Trust & Assurance Registry (STAR) SelfAssessment to document our compliance with CSA-published best practices. We publish our completed CSA Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ) on the AWS website.
10.3.2.2. CSA for AWS Partners
The CSA CAIQ provides a set of questions that the CSA anticipates a cloud consumer and/or cloud auditor would ask of a CSP like AWS. It provides a series of security, control, and process questions that can then be used for a wide range of uses, including cloud provider security evaluation.
10.3.3. Federal Information Security Management Act
AWS enables US government agencies to achieve and sustain compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA). AWS’s infrastructure has been evaluated by independent assessors for a variety of government systems as part of their system owners’ approval process. Numerous Federal Civilian and DoD organizations have successfully achieved security authorizations for systems hosted on AWS in accordance with the Risk Management Framework (RMF) process defined in NIST 800-37 and DoD Information

Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP). AWS’s secure infrastructure has helped federal agencies expand cloud computing use cases and deploy sensitive government data and applications in the cloud while complying with the rigorous security requirements of federal standards.
10.3.4. National Institute of Standards and Technology 800-53 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53 security controls are generally applicable to US Federal Information Systems. Federal Information Systems typically must go through a formal assessment and authorization process to ensure sufficient protection of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and information systems.
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is supported by governments and industries worldwide as a recommended baseline for use by any organization, regardless of its sector or size. Since Fiscal Year 2016, federal agency FISMA metrics have been organized around the CSF, and agencies are now required to implement the CSF under the Cybersecurity Executive Order.
10.3.4.1. AWS and NIST 800-53
AWS Cloud infrastructure and services have been validated by third-party testing performed against the NIST 800-53 Revision 4 controls and additional FedRAMP requirements. AWS has received FedRAMP ATOs from multiple authorizing agencies for both AWS GovCloud (US) and the AWS US East/West Regions. For more information, see the AWS FedRAMP compliance webpage, or the following FedRAMP Marketplace webpages:
• AWS East/West Region complete list of authorizing agencies • AWS GovCloud (US) complete list of authorizing agencies • AWS GovCloud JAB P-ATO at the high baseline
10.3.4.2. NIST 800-53 for AWS Partners
Under NDA, AWS provides an AWS FedRAMP SSP template based upon NIST 800-53 Rev. 4, which is prepopulated with the applicable NIST 800-5 Rev. 4 Low/Moderate/High control baseline. Control responsibility is as follows:
• Shared Responsibility: The customer will provide security and configurations of their software components, and AWS will provide security for its infrastructure. • Customer-Only Responsibility: The customer is fully responsible for guest operating systems, deployed applications, and select networking resources (for example, firewalls). More specifically, the customer is solely responsible for configuring and managing security in the cloud.
• AWS-Only Responsibility: AWS manages the cloud infrastructure, including the network, data storage, system resources, data centers, physical security, reliability, and supporting hardware and software. Applications built on top of the AWS system inherit the features and configurable options that AWS provides. AWS is solely responsible for configuring and managing security of the cloud.
For security authorization purposes, compliance with the FedRAMP requirements (based on NIST 800-53 rev 4 Low/Moderate/High control baseline) is contingent upon AWS fully implementing AWS-only and shared controls and the customer or AWS Partner implementing customer-only and shared controls. A FedRAMP-accredited 3PAO has assessed and authorized AWS implementation of our control responsibility. The portion of shared controls that the customer or AWS Partner is responsible for and the controls related to applications they
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 43
implement on top of the AWS infrastructure must be separately assessed and authorized by them in agreement with NIST 800-37 and their specific security authorization policies and procedures.
AWS FedRAMP-compliant systems have been granted authorizations, have addressed the FedRAMP security controls (NIST 800-53), use the required FedRAMP templates for the security packages posted in the secure FedRAMP Repository, have been assessed by an accredited independent 3PAO, and maintain the continuous monitoring requirements of FedRAMP.
Customers and AWS Partners can use our NIST CSF whitepaper to assess their AWS environment against the NIST CSF and improve the security measures they implement and operate. The whitepaper also provides a third-party auditor letter attesting to the AWS Cloud services’ conformance to NIST CSF risk management practices.
10.3.5. Uptime Institute Tiers
The Uptime Institute created the standard Tier Classification System to evaluate various data center facilities in terms of potential site infrastructure performance, or uptime. Uptime Institute has not authorized other organizations to certify data centers under its Tier Classification System. Uptime Institute does not design, build, or operate data centers.
10.3.5.1. AWS and Uptime Institute Tiers
AWS operates our data centers in alignment with the Tier III+ guidelines, but we have chosen not to have a certified Uptime Institute-based tiering level so that we have more flexibility to expand and improve performance. AWS’s approach to infrastructure performance acknowledges Uptime Institute’s tiering guidelines and applies them to our global data center infrastructure design to ensure the highest level of performance and availability for our customers. AWS then improves on the guidelines provided by the Uptime Institute to scale for global operations and produce an operating outcome for availability and performance that far exceeds that which would be achieved through the Uptime Institute tiering guidelines alone.
Although we do not claim alignment with Tier IV, we can ensure that our systems have a fault tolerant sequence of operations with self-correcting mitigations in place.
AWS has identified critical system components required to maintain the availability of the system and recover service in the event of outage. Critical system components are backed up across multiple, isolated locations known as Availability Zones. Each Availability Zone runs on its own physically distinct, independent infrastructure, and is engineered to be highly reliable.
Availability Zones are connected to each other with fast, private fiber-optic networking, enabling customers and AWS Partners to easily architect applications that automatically fail-over between Availability Zones without interruption.
10.3.5.2. Uptime Institute Tiers for AWS Partners
AWS customers can build highly resilient systems in the cloud by employing multiple instances in multiple Availability Zones plus data replication to achieve extremely high recovery time and recovery point objectives, as well as service availability of 99.999% and more. Service availability is therefore a function of the design; customers who care about the availability and performance of their applications want to deploy these applications across multiple Availability Zones in the same region for fault tolerance and low latency. Some AWS Cloud services, such as Amazon S3, are built to leverage all Availability Zones within the region and have a durability objective of 99.999999999%.

11. Managing AWS Resources
You can find more information in RFx Aid – Managing your AWS Resources.
With the AWS Cloud, customers can easily provision, manage, and monitor all of their IT resources in one location with the tool that best fits their unique needs. This helps them know what is going on in their cloud environment, such as instance health, logs of user actions, and ways to save money. AWS Cloud services are driven by robust APIs that allow for a wide variety of monitoring, management and developer tools to integrate easily with AWS Cloud resources. AWS supports common tools from vendors such as Microsoft, VMware, BMC Software, Okta, RightScale, Eucalyptus, CA, Xceedium, Symantec, Racemi, and Dell. Below are some AWS-native management options, which can be used alongside familiar management tools available on AWS Marketplace.
11.1. AWS Management Console
The AWS Management Console is a single destination for managing all AWS resources.
Customers can use the AWS Management Console to perform any number of tasks (e.g., deploying new applications, monitoring the health of applications, accessing monthly spending by service, and managing security credentials). The AWS Management Console supports all AWS Regions and lets customers provision resources across multiple Regions.
11.2. Command Line Interface (CLI)
The AWS CLI is a unified tool used to manage AWS Cloud services. With just one tool to download and configure, customers can control multiple AWS resources from the command line and automate them through scripts. The AWS CLI introduces a new set of simple file commands for efficient file transfers to and from Amazon S3.
11.3. Management Tools
AWS provides management tools that allows customers to programmatically provision, monitor, and automate all the components of their cloud environment. Using these tools, they can maintain consistent controls without restricting development velocity. These services all work together and are integrated with every part of the AWS platform, allowing customers to have greater insight into their cloud environment as well as maintain logs necessary for audits. Our management tools include the following:
• AWS Auto Scaling: Easily and safely scale multiple AWS resources. • Amazon CloudWatch: Collect and track metrics, collect and monitor log files, set alarms, and automatically react to changes in AWS resources.
• AWS CloudFormation: Model and provision—in an automated and secure manner—all the resources needed for applications across all regions and accounts. • AWS CloudTrail: Automatically log, continuously monitor, and retain account activity related to actions across AWS infrastructure.
• AWS Config: Inventory all configurations across AWS resources. • AWS Control Tower: Configure AWS management and security services based on established best practices in a secure, compliant, multi-account environment. • AWS License Manager: Manage licenses in AWS and on-premises servers from software vendors such as Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, and IBM. • AWS OpsWorks: Host and scale Chef Automate and Puppet Enterprise servers.
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 45
• AWS Personal Health Dashboard: View the performance and availability of the AWS Cloud services underlying AWS resources.
• AWS Systems Manager: Centralize operational data from multiple AWS Cloud services and automate tasks across AWS resources.
• AWS Service Catalog: Create, manage, and distribute catalogs of approved products to end users, who can then access the products they need in a personalized portal. • AWS Trusted Advisor: Provision resources by following best practices. • AWS Well-Architected Tool: Review the state of workloads and compare them to the latest AWS architectural best practices.
AWS also offers several tools for cost management:
• AWS Budgets: Set custom budgets that send alert when costs or usage exceed (or are forecasted to exceed) a budgeted amount.
• AWS Cost and Usage Report: Customize a report that lists AWS usage for each service category used by an account and its IAM users in hourly or daily line items, as well as any activated tags for cost allocation purposes .
• AWS Cost Explorer: Visualize, understand, and manage AWS costs and usage over time.
12. Back-up and Disaster Recovery (DR)
You can find more information in RFx Aid – Disaster Recovery and Resiliency.
Customers of all sizes are using AWS to enable faster disaster recovery (DR) of their critical IT systems without incurring the infrastructure expense of a second physical site. AWS takes care of the undifferentiated heavy lifting required to create, implement, and manage scalable backup and recovery solutions.
There are many advantages to using AWS as part of a data protection strategy:
• Durability: Amazon S3, Amazon S3 Glacier, and S3 Glacier Deep Archive are designed for 99.999999999 percent of durability. Both platforms offer reliable backup of data, with object replication across at least three geographically dispersed Availability Zones. Many AWS services use Amazon S3 for storage and export/import operations. For example, Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) uses Amazon S3 for snapshot storage. • Security: AWS provides a number of options for access control and data encryption while in-transit and at-rest.
• Global infrastructure: AWS services are available around the globe, so customers can back up and store data in the Region that meets their compliance and workload. • Compliance: AWS regularly achieves third-party validation for thousands of global compliance requirements that we continually monitor, so customers can easily fit the backup solution into their existing compliance regimen. Customers can access and download compliance reports through AWS Artifact.
• Scalability: With AWS, customers don’t have to worry about capacity. As their needs change, they can scale their consumption up or down without administrative overhead.
AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (AWS DRS) continuously replicates customers’ machines (including operating system, system state configuration, databases, applications, and files) into a low-cost staging area in their target AWS account and preferred Region. In the case of a disaster, the customer can instruct CloudEndure Disaster Recovery to automatically launch thousands of their machines in their fully provisioned state in minutes.
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 46
Using these capabilities on our global infrastructure, customers can build a DR solution to fit their budget, recovery time objective (RTO), and recovery point objective (RPO) (depicted in Figure 10). An organization typically decides on an acceptable RTO and RPO based on the financial impact when systems are unavailable. The organization then plans solutions to provide cost-effective system recovery based on the RPO within the timeline and the service level established by the RTO.
Figure 10: RPO and RTO. RPO relates to data loss in the event of a disaster; RTO relates to the amount of time systems are down.
Figure 11 shows a spectrum of scenarios—backup and restore, pilot light, warm standby, and multi-site—arranged by how quickly a system can be available to users after a DR event.
Typically, the shorter the recovery, the higher the cost of the solution. Each DR option is discussed in more detail below.
Figure 11: Spectrum of DR Options. Customers can choose a preferred DR option based on preferences for cost and the time it takes to recover systems.
12.1. Backup and Restore
In most traditional environments, data is backed up to tape and sent offsite regularly. Recovery time is the longest using this method, and lack of automation leads to increased costs. Amazon S3 is ideal for backup data, as it is designed to provide 99.999999999% durability of objects over a given year. Amazon S3 offers a range of storage classes—including options for one-zone infrequent access and archive—to help save on costs. Transferring data to and from Amazon S3 is typically done via the network, and it is therefore accessible from any location. For a hybrid architecture, customers can use AWS Storage Gateway to automatically back up onpremises data to Amazon S3. To centralize and automate their backup, AWS Backup allows customers to configure backup policies and monitor backup activity.

12.2. Pilot Light for Simple Recovery into AWS Warm Standby Solution
In a gas heater, a small idle flame – called a pilot light – is always burning, and can quickly ignite the entire furnace to heat up a house as needed. This is analogous to the “pilot light” backup and restore approach. In this DR approach, customers replicate part of their IT structure for a limited set of core services in AWS. In the event of a disaster, the AWS cloud environment takes over. A small part of their infrastructure is always running, simultaneously syncing mutable data (such as databases or documents) while other parts of their infrastructure are switched off and used only during testing. Unlike a backup and recovery approach, the most critical core elements are already configured and running in AWS. When the time comes for recovery, the customer can rapidly provision a full-scale production environment around the critical core. The pilot light approach typically uses a compute service like Amazon EC2 or a database service like Amazon RDS.
12.3. Warm Standby Solution in AWS
The term “warm standby” is used to describe a DR scenario in which a scaled-down version of a fully functional environment is always running in the cloud. This decreases recovery time because some services are always running. By identifying business-critical systems, the customer can fully duplicate these systems on AWS and have them always on. These servers can run on a minimum-sized fleet of Amazon EC2 instances on the smallest sizes possible. This solution is not scaled to handle a full-production load, but it is fully functional. It can be used for non-production work, such as testing, quality assurance, and internal use. In a disaster, customers can scale out the system quickly to handle the production load by adding more instances. They can automate this process using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing.
12.4. Multi-Site Solution Deployed on AWS and Onsite
A multi-site solution runs in AWS and on the customer’s existing on-premises infrastructure in an active-active configuration. During a disaster situation, the customer sends all traffic to AWS servers, which can scale to handle the full production load. For this approach, customers can use a DNS service that supports weighted routing, such as Amazon Route 53, to route production traffic to different sites that deliver the same application or service. A proportion of traffic will go to the customer’s infrastructure in AWS, and the remainder will go to their onsite infrastructure. In an onsite disaster situation, the customer can adjust the DNS weighting and send all traffic to the AWS servers. The capacity of the AWS Cloud service can be rapidly increased to handle the full production load. Customers can automate this process using Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing.
13. Security Questionnaires
Under the Shared Responsibility Model, AWS is responsible for security of the cloud: protecting the infrastructure that runs all of the services offered in the AWS Cloud. All other security in the cloud is dependent on the customer or AWS partner’s management of their account(s) and their solution. AWS personnel cannot fill out Security Questionnaires on behalf of our AWS Partners.
In addition, AWS Partners maintain full control of their content and responsibility for configuring access to AWS services and resources. We provide an advanced set of access, encryption, and logging features to help AWS Partners do this effectively (for example, AWS Identity and Access Management, AWS Organizations and AWS CloudTrail). AWS Partners and customers
17.H.
AWS Partner Package – US State and Local Government and Education Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document Q2 2023 48
can choose how their content is secured. In the event that they need assistance to complete a questionnaire to document AWS security and compliance positions, we have the following resources to assist with understanding security on AWS. If AWS Partners have additional questions about a specific requirement, they can reach out to their AWS Account team for further information.
• Compliance FAQs:This page answers frequently-asked questions about compliance. • AWS Artifact: AWS Artifact is a central resource for compliance-related information. It provides on-demand access to AWS’s security and compliance reports and select online agreements. The AWS SOC 2 report is particularly helpful for completing questionnaires because it provides a comprehensive description of the implementation and operating effectiveness of AWS security controls. Note that some AWS Artifact documentation is available under NDA, and use of the content is subject to the terms of that NDA. • CSA Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire: The CSA Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire provides a set of questions the CSA anticipates a cloud consumer and/or auditor would ask of a cloud provider. It provides a series of security, control, and process questions which can then be used for a wide range of uses, including cloud provider selection and security evaluation. This document contains the AWS answers to the CSA questionnaire.

C.1. Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a US government-wide program that delivers a standard approach to the security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. The governing bodies of FedRAMP include the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), US General Services Administration (GSA), US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), US Department of Defense (DoD), National Institutes of Standards & Technology (NIST), and the Federal Chief Information Officers (CIO) Council.
Cloud services providers (CSPs) like AWS who want to offer their products and services to the US government must demonstrate FedRAMP compliance. FedRAMP uses the NIST Special Publication 800 series and requires CSPs to receive an independent security assessment conducted by a third-party assessment organization (3PAO) to ensure that authorizations are compliant with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA).
There are two paths for CSPs to be FedRAMP compliant:
• Joint Authorization Board (JAB) Authorization – To receive FedRAMP JAB Provisional Authority to Operate (P-ATO), a CSP is reviewed by the FedRAMP Program Management Office (PMO), is assessed by a FedRAMP-accredited 3PAO, and receives a P-ATO from the JAB. The JAB is made up of the CIOs from DoD, DHS, and GSA. • Agency Authorization – To receive FedRAMP Agency Authority to Operate (ATO), a CSP is reviewed by a customer Agency CIO or Delegated Authorizing Official(s) to achieve a FedRAMP-compliant ATO that is verified by the FedRAMP PMO.
AWS and FedRAMP
AWS offers the following FedRAMP compliant systems that have been granted authorizations:
• AWS GovCloud (US), which has been granted a JAB P-ATO and multiple ATOs for high impact level. The services in scope of the AWS GovCloud (US) JAB P-ATO boundary at high baseline security categorization can be found within the AWS Services in Scope by Compliance Program.
• AWS US East-West, which has been granted a JAB P-ATO and multiple ATOs for moderate impact level. The services in scope of the AWS US East-West JAB P-ATO boundary at moderate baseline security categorization can be found within the AWS Services in Scope by Compliance Program.
FedRAMP for AWS Partners
AWS Partners and prospective customers can request access to the AWS APN Partner FedRAMP Security Package using AWS Artifact. Note that some AWS Artifact documentation is available under NDA, and use of the content is subject to the terms of that NDA.

AWS works with customers to provide the information they need to manage compliance when using the AWS US East-West or AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. For more information about the standard, see Cryptographic Module Validation Program on the NIST Computer Security Resource Center website.
FIPS for AWS Partners
The Amazon VPC VPN endpoints in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions operate using FIPS 140- 2 validated cryptographic modules. If you require use of FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic modules when accessing AWS US East/West or AWS GovCloud (US) through use of the CLI or programmatically by using the APIs, the list of available FIPS endpoints by AWS Region can be found on our FIPS Publication 140-2 page.
C.3. International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2015 The International Organization for Standardization (ISO 9001:2015) outlines a process-oriented approach to documenting and reviewing the structure, responsibilities, and procedures required to achieve effective quality management within an organization. The key to the ongoing certification under this standard is establishing, maintaining, and improving the organizational structure, responsibilities, procedures, processes, and resources in a manner in which AWS products and services consistently satisfy ISO 9001:2015 quality requirements.
AWS and ISO 9001:2015
AWS has undergone a systematic, independent examination of our quality system to determine whether the activities and activity outputs comply with ISO 9001:2015 requirements. A certifying agent found our quality management system to comply with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 for the activities described in the scope of registration. You can download AWS’s ISO 9001:2015 certification from our website.
ISO 9001:2015 for AWS Partners
The certification covers the quality management system over a specified scope of AWS Cloud services and Regions of operations. If you are pursuing ISO 9001:2015 certification while operating all or part of your IT systems on the AWS Cloud, you are not automatically certified by association. However, using an ISO 9001:2015 certified provider like AWS can make your certification process easier.
C.4. ISO/International Electrotechnical Commission 27001:2013 ISO/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 27001:2013 is a security management standard that specifies security management best practices and comprehensive security controls following the ISO/IEC 27002 best practice guidance. The basis of this certification is the development and implementation of a rigorous security program, which includes the development and implementation of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) which defines how AWS perpetually manages security in a holistic, comprehensive manner. This widely-recognized international security standard specifies that AWS do the following:
• Systematically evaluate our information security risks, taking into account the impact of threats and vulnerabilities.

Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document. • Design and implement a comprehensive suite of information security controls and other forms of risk management to address customer and architecture security risks. • Have an overarching management process to ensure that the information security controls meet our needs on an ongoing basis.
AWS and ISO/IEC 27001:2013
AWS has certification for compliance with ISO/IEC 27001:2013, 27017:2015, and 27018:2014.
These certifications are performed by independent third-party auditors. AWS’s ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification can be downloaded from our website.
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 for AWS Partners
The ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification for AWS covers the AWS security management process over a specified scope of services and data centers. If you are pursuing ISO/IEC certifications while operating part or all of your IT on the AWS Cloud, you are not automatically certified by association. However, using an ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certified provider like AWS can make your certification process easier.
C.5. ISO/IEC 27017:2015
ISO/IEC 27017:2015 provides guidance on the information security aspects of cloud computing, recommending the implementation of cloud-specific information security controls that supplement the guidance of the ISO/IEC 27002 and ISO/IEC 27001 standards. This code of practice provides additional information security controls implementation guidance specific to CSPs like AWS.
AWS and ISO/IEC 27017:2015
AWS’s attestation to the ISO/IEC 27017:2015 guidance not only demonstrates our ongoing commitment to align with globally-recognized best practices, but also verifies that AWS has a system of highly precise controls in place that are specific to cloud services. AWS’s ISO/IEC 27017:2015 certification can be downloaded from our website.
ISO/IEC 27017:2015 for AWS Partners
AWS’s ISO/IEC 27017:2015 certification covers the security management process and cloud provider specific controls. If you are pursuing ISO/IEC certifications while operating part or all of your IT environment on the AWS Cloud, you are not automatically certified by association.
However, using an ISO/IEC 27017:2015 certified provider like AWS can make your certification process easier. The AWS ISO/IEC 27017:2015 assessment provides evidence that our security controls are aligned with the 27017:2015 guidance specific to CSPs.
C.6. ISO/IEC 27018:2019
ISO/IEC 27018:2019 is a code of practice that focuses on protection of personal data in the cloud. It is based on ISO/IEC information security standard 27002 and provides implementation guidance on ISO/IEC 27002 controls applicable to public cloud personally identifiable information (PII). It also provides a set of additional controls and associated guidance intended to address public cloud PII protection requirements not addressed by the existing ISO/IEC 27002 control set.

Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this document.
AWS maintains the high bar of data protection and privacy controls outlined in ISO/IEC 27018:2014 for all customer content, regardless of whether or not any particular data is PII.
AWS’s ISO/IEC 27018:2019 certification can be downloaded from our website.
ISO/IEC 27018:2019 for AWS Partners
Alignment demonstrates to customers that AWS has a system of controls in place that specifically address the privacy protection of their content. AWS’s alignment with and independent third-party assessment of this internationally recognized code of practice demonstrates AWS’s commitment to the privacy and protection of customers’ content.
C.7. Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS Level 1) is a proprietary information security standard administered by the PCI Security Standards Council, which was founded by American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide, and Visa Inc.
PCI DSS applies to all entities that store, process, or transmit cardholder data (CHD) or sensitive authentication data (SAD), including merchants, processors, acquirers, issuers, and service providers. PCI DSS is mandated by the card brands and administered by the PCI Security Standards Council.
AWS and PCI DSS
AWS is certified as a PCI DSS 3.2 Level 1 Service Provider, the highest level of assessment available. The compliance assessment was conducted by Coalfire Systems Inc., an independent Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). The PCI DSS Attestation of Compliance (AOC) and Responsibility Summary is available to AWS customers by using AWS Artifact. Note that some AWS Artifact documentation is available under NDA and use of the content is subject to the terms of that NDA.
PCI DSS for AWS Partners
As a customer who uses AWS products and services to store, process, or transmit cardholder data, you can rely on AWS technology infrastructure as you manage your own PCI DSS compliance certification.
AWS does not directly store, transmit, or process any customer CHD. However, you may create your own cardholder data environment (CDE) that can store, transmit, or process cardholder data using AWS products.
Customers must manage their own PCI DSS compliance certification, and additional testing will be required to verify that your environment satisfies all PCS DSS requirements. However, for the portion of the PCI CDE that is deployed in AWS, your QSA can rely on AWS AOC without further testing.
C.8. System and Organization Control (SOC) Reports
AWS System and Organization Control (SOC Reports) are independent third-party examination reports that demonstrate how AWS achieves key compliance controls and objectives. The purpose of these reports is to help you and your auditors understand the AWS controls established to support operations and compliance. Table 3 describes the four AWS SOC Reports.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting: City Council Meeting - Jun 24 2025
Department: Public Works
Submitted by: Mark Prestwich, City Manager
Jilleen Ferris, Deputy Public Works Director/Assistant City Engineer; ☐ Receive and File ☒ Consent Calendar ☐ Business Item ☐ Public Hearing TITLE:
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Approving and Ordering the Summary Vacation of Existing Right-of-Way for Portions of Sanderson Avenue RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Council:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, Approving and Ordering the Summary Vacation of Existing Right-of-Way for Portions of Sanderson Avenue.
BACKGROUND:
Sanderson Square (SP05-03) includes the undeveloped area bounded by Sanderson Avenue to the west, Whittier Avenue to the north, Kirby Industrial to the east, and railroad/self-storage to the south.
APNs 456-030-048, 456-030-051, and 456-030-036 currently front Sanderson Avenue as part of Sanderson Square.
At the time that the Specific Plan was developed and approved, the half street right-of-way along Sanderson Avenue fronting Sanderson Square was 50 feet. As part of Lot Line Adjustment No. 04- 17, an additional 45 feet of roadway dedication was provided along Sanderson Avenue. Currently, the City of Hemet’s General Plan identifies Sanderson Avenue within this area as a Major Street, with half street right-of-way varying from 49 feet to 54 feet. Additionally, the City of Hemet’s Scenic Highway Setback identifies this portion of the street and requires an additional 25 feet. This results in a required right-of-way for roadway and scenic highway setback of 74 feet to 79 feet. Currently, the existing half street right-of-way along the project frontage is 95 feet.
ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to the provisions of Public Streets, Highways, and Service Easements Vacation Law (Division 9, Part 3 of the California Streets and Highways Code, Section 8300 et seq.) and specifically Chapter 4, “Summary Vacation”, the City Council may summarily vacate any excess right-of-way or
17.I.
highway not required for street or highway purposes. The proposed half street right-of-way for street improvements of 50 feet is consistent with the City of Hemet General Plan, and an additional 25 feet for the scenic highway setback would require a total of 75 feet of right-of-way. The existing half street right-of-way of 95 feet provides an additional 20 feet and therefore is being vacated consistent with Section 8334(a).
DISCUSSION:
The City Engineer and the consultant City Surveyor have reviewed the vacation legal description and plat and find that it is technically correct.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Hemet, California, approving and ordering the summary vacation of existing right-of-way for portions of Sanderson Avenue described in Exhibits “A” and “B” in Attachment 2 of this report.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
There has been no previous Council action.
STRATEGIC PLAN INTEGRATION:
GOAL ONE: QUALITY OF LIFE:
To ensure that Hemet is safe, clean, attractive and comfortable for all who live, work, and visit.
Objective 1: Enhance the visual appearance of the community to make it attractive and reduce blight.
Objective 2: Explore and implement homelessness solutions for the City of Hemet.
Objective 3: Increase Public Safety visibility and response.
FISCAL IMPACT:

ALTERNATIVE(S):
1. Do not approve the summary vacation.
2. Provide alternative direction to the City Manager.

Executive Summary
This Engineer’s Report contains language and wording from the “2013-14 Engineer’s Annual Levy Report” that was previously adopted by the City on July 9, 2013 through Resolution Bill No. 13-035 which preserves the continuity of information.
Introduction
The City of Hemet (“City”) annually levies and collects special assessments in order to fund the maintenance and servicing of street landscaping improvements within the Landscape Maintenance Districts (“Districts”). The Districts were formed and are levied annually pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (“1972 Act”).
This Consolidated Annual Engineer’s Report (“Report”) describes the Districts and improvements, any proposed changes to the Districts or improvements and the proposed budgets and assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The assessments are based on the City’s estimated costs to maintain and service the improvements that provide a special benefit to properties assessed within the respective Districts. Each District’s costs and corresponding levy are based on an annual budget which includes all expenditures, deficits, surpluses, revenues, and reserves for each individual District.
For the purposes of this Report, the word “parcel” refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number by the Riverside County (“County”) Assessor’s Office. The County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor’s Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers to identify properties assessed for special district benefit assessments on the County tax roll.
Following consideration of public comments and written protests at a noticed public hearing, the City Council may order amendments to the Report or adopt the Report as submitted. Following final approval of the Report and confirmation of the assessments, the Council may then order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26 pursuant to the 1972 Act. In such case, the assessment information will be submitted to the County Auditor/Controller and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel in Fiscal Year 2025-26.

3 General Description of Improvements and Services
The Districts provide for the collection of annual assessments to fund the installation and ongoing maintenance and servicing of landscape improvements, drainage, and appurtenant facilities including, but not limited to, the cost of personnel, electrical energy, water service, materials, equipment, contracting services, and other items necessary for the satisfactory operation of these services in each District.
The proposed improvements for the Districts may be generally described as follows:
• The operation, maintenance, and servicing of all existing landscaping and appurtenant facilities necessary for the daily maintenance of said landscaping located within City rights-of-way.
Operation, maintenance, and servicing means all work necessary for the daily maintenance required to maintain said landscaping including providing any necessary water, power, fertilizer, pest control, trimming, mowing, replacement due to damage or theft, and removal of all debris caused by nature or the act of maintaining the landscaping. • All improvements consisting of trees, turf, shrubbery, ground cover, irrigation devices, water meters, electrical equipment, appurtenant structures, and ornamental structures existing at the present time. The cost associated with these improvements will be the cost of operations, maintenance and servicing.
Although the 1972 Act allows for the construction or installation of improvements and the assignment of the benefit assessments associated therewith, it is not anticipated that any improvements will be installed nor benefit assessments made for the installation of improvements.
The plans and specifications for the improvements for the Districts are voluminous and are not included in this Report, but are on file in the office of the City Engineer and are by reference herein made a part of this Report.

10 PART II – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements, which provide a special benefit to parcels within the District. This includes the construction, maintenance, and servicing of public lights, landscaping, dedicated easements for landscape use, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further provides that assessments may be apportioned upon all assessable lots or parcels of land within an assessment district in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the improvements rather than assessed value. “The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements”(Section 22573 of the 1972 Act).
The formula used for calculating assessments reflects the composition of the parcels and the improvements and services provided by the Districts to fairly apportion the costs based on the estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, Article XIII D of the California Constitution (“Article”) requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. The Article provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. A special benefit is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on the public at large, including real property within the Districts. The general enhancement of property value does not constitute a special benefit.
General Benefit
The total benefit from the works of improvement is a combination of the special benefits to the parcels within the Districts and the general benefits to the public at large and to adjacent property owners. The portion of the landscaping maintenance costs associated with general benefits will not be assessed to the parcels in the Districts, but will be paid from other funds. Because the landscaping improvements are located immediately adjacent to properties within the Districts and are maintained solely for the benefit of the properties within the Districts. No benefit is received by properties outside of the Districts. As a result, no property is assessed in excess of the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that property.

11 Special Benefit
The maintenance of landscaping provides direct and special benefit to those properties located within the Districts.
Each and every lot or parcel within the Districts receives a particular and distinct benefit from the improvements over and above general benefits conferred by the improvements. First, the improvements were conditions of approval for the creation or development of the parcels. In order to create or develop the parcels, the City required the original developer to install and/or guarantee the maintenance of the improvements and appurtenant facilities serving the lots or parcels. Therefore, each and every lot or parcel within the Districts could not have been developed in the absence of the installation and expected maintenance of these facilities.
In addition, the improvements continue to confer a particular and distinct special benefit upon parcels within the Districts because of the nature of the improvements. The proper maintenance of landscaping and appurtenant facilities especially benefit parcels within the Districts by moderating temperatures, attenuating noise from adjacent streets, controlling dust for those properties in close proximity to the landscaping, improving erosion and water quality control, and improving neighborhood property aesthetics. The spraying and treating of landscaping for disease reduces the likelihood of insect infestation and other diseases spreading to landscaping located throughout the properties within the Districts.
The proper maintenance of the landscaping, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities reduces property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the Districts through the screening of properties within the Districts from arterial streets.
Finally, the proper maintenance of landscaping and appurtenant structures improves the attractiveness of the properties within the Districts. This provides a positive visual experience and provides an enhanced quality of life and sense of well-being for properties within the Districts.
Based on the benefits described above, landscaping is an integral part of the quality of life within the Districts. This quality of life is a special benefit to those parcels that are not government-owned easements, utility easements, or flood channel parcels. Government-owned easement, utility easement and flood channel parcels do not benefit from the improvements due to their use and lack of habitation on such parcels. Parcels of this nature are usually vacant narrow strips of land or flood control channels and therefore do not generate or experience pedestrian or vehicular traffic. Nor do these types of parcels support dwelling units or other structures that would promote frequent use of the parcels by the traveling public. As a result of this lack of activity on such parcels, they do not receive any benefit from landscaping and are not assessed.

12 Special Benefit of Landscape Maintenance Districts Authorized Improvements and Services:
• Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements • Improved aesthetic appeal of properties providing a positive representation of the area and properties
• Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping
• Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, dust and debris control, and fire prevention
• Increased sense of pride in ownership of property resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties
• Enhanced quality of life through well-maintained green belts and landscaped areas • Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties through well-maintained surroundings and amenities
• Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels by moderating temperatures, and attenuating noise
Methodology
Original Districts
Residential parcels in each specific District are assessed for the special benefits they receive from the maintained landscaping in that District and only that District. Since the frontage of a parcel is an indicator of the relative access to the benefits conferred to that parcel, the assessments are based on a front footage basis.
For commercial property, the special benefit to each parcel is derived not only from the benefits to the property described above, but also the enhancement of the businesses through the enhanced ability to attract clients, employees, and customers to the parcel and the associated business conducted there. This benefit increases according to the size of the business and the number of people doing business there, which, in turn, generally correlates to the area of the parcel. Therefore, the estimated benefit of the improvements to a commercial parcel is greater than that of a residential parcel.
Publicly owned parcels are assessed the same as other parcels, except for publicly owned drainage basins.
The latter parcels are undeveloped and are required to remain undeveloped in order to function as drainage basins. Therefore, the parcels receive none of the special benefits described above.
With this determination of special benefit, each parcel in the district, regardless of land use, is assessed based on the parcel’s front linear footage. Front footage is defined as the width of the parcel immediately abutting a City street, with the following exceptions:
17.J.
Engineer’s Report
Landscape Maintenance Districts
City of Hemet
Fiscal Year 2025-26
13 • Corner parcels - The shorter of the two sides immediately abutting dedicated City streets will be considered the parcel’s front footage.
• Cul-de-sac parcels - The width of the parcel measured 50 feet back from the property line immediately abutting a dedicated City street will be considered the parcel’s front footage.
Units of Benefit (“UOB”) are apportioned according to a parcel’s land use and special benefit received.
Land use is categorized as follows:
• Residential parcels are those lots having at least one residential structure on them with a lot frontage of 120 feet or less.
• Rural parcels are those lots having at least one residential structure on them with a lot frontage over 120 feet. The maximum assessment frontage for rural parcels will be 120 feet. • Agricultural parcels are those lots having no residential structures on them and with a frontage in excess of 120 feet.
• Commercial/Industrial parcels are those lots that are not classified as residential, rural, or agricultural.
The assessments are apportioned on the basis of a UOB, which is defined as an increment of the front linear footage of the particular parcel classification. Accordingly, parcels with greater front linear footage will have a proportionally higher number of UOBs.
• Residential parcels are assigned one UOB per front linear foot up to 120 front linear feet. • Rural parcels are assigned one hundred and twenty (120) UOB per lot. • Agricultural parcels with a frontage in excess of 120 feet will be assigned zero UOB until such time as the parcel develops. Agricultural parcels with a frontage less than 120 feet will be assigned zero UOBs.
• Commercial/Industrial parcels are assigned 1.5 UOB per front linear foot with no limit in front linear footage.
Once the number of UOBs and costs associated with each district are determined, the costs are divided by the UOBs to determine an assessment rate for each UOB in each district.
Each parcel currently within the Districts will be placed into one of the four designated classifications by land use. The individual assessments will then be determined by multiplying the District assessment rate by the parcel’s total UOB.
Land Use Category Assigned UOB
Residential 1.0 UOB/Front Linear Foot
Commercial/Industrial 1.5 UOB/Front Linear Foot
Agricultural 0.0 UOB

14 Subsequent Districts and Annexations
With the exception of Districts 25, 51 - 53, 55, 101-106, 108-109 and 112-113 each of the Districts formed subsequent to the formation of the Original Districts consist of single-family residential parcels, which all receive a unique and special benefit from the improvements. Due to their similarity in location, use, and proximity to the improvements, all parcels within a particular District will be assessed at the same assessment rate calculated for that District. Therefore, each parcel in each of these Districts is assessed for the special benefits of the landscaping maintained in its respective District, and only that District, and will be assigned one UOB or Unit and charged the same per UOB/Unit rate as any other parcel in that District.
For the Districts formed after 1999, the maximum assessment rates are subject to a cost of living increase as explained further in Part III. Please refer to Appendix A for the District Budgets and the Maximum Levy Rate per Unit.
For Districts 25 Florida Avenue and 101 AP North Lake Solar, assessments are made on the basis of a UOB, with a UOB defined as an increment of the front linear footage of the particular parcel classification.
Commercial parcels will be assigned 1.50 UOB per front linear foot with no limit in front linear footage.
Currently, there are seven parcels located in District 25 with a total of 1,121.00 feet of commercial front linear footage. Applying the UOB formula, with a UOB defined as an increment of the front linear footage of the particular parcel classification, results in a total UOB count of 1,681.50 for District 25. Once the costs associated with District 25 are determined, the costs are divided by the total UOBs to determine the rate per UOB. Each parcel’s assessment is based on the calculated rate per UOB multiplied by the assigned UOBs of that parcel.
For Districts 102 Oak Tree Plaza, 103 Redline Express Car Wash, 104 Tractor Supply Company, 105 Les Schwab Tires, 106 Hemet Auto Mall (Zone A and Zone B), 108 CUP No. 16-007,109 Airway Place, Zanderson Plaza and Holiday In Express (CUP19-015) assessments are made on the basis of a UOB, with a UOB defined as an increment of acreage of the particular parcel classification. In converting Commercial/Industrial properties to EBUs, the factor used is the City of Hemet average single family residential density of 2.58 dwelling units per acre (as derived from the City of Hemet 2030 General Plan, Table 2.3 - Development Capacity, dated January 24, 2012 (Hemet General Plan)). Therefore, the Commercial/Industrial parcels, including institutional uses, will be assigned 2.58 EBUs per acre.
For Districts 51 – 53 and 55, all commercial parcels, will receive a per parcel rate based upon the proportional spread of the assessment by each parcel’s acreage as compared to other parcels within the same commercial development. For Fiscal Year 2025-26, District 51 and District 53 are dormant and will not be levied.
Currently, District 101 (AP North Lake Solar) is composed of a single parcel with a total of 2,400.00 feet of commercial front linear footage. Applying the UOB formula, with a UOB defined as an increment of the

17 PART III – COST ESTIMATE
The cost estimate contains each of the items specified in Section 22569 of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972.
The 1972 Act provides that the estimated costs of the improvements shall include the total cost of the improvements for the entire fiscal year, including incidental expenses, which may include operating reserves.
The 1972 Act also provides that the amount of any surplus, deficit, or contribution be included in the estimated cost of improvements. The net amount to be assessed on the lots or parcels within each District is the total cost of installation, maintenance, and servicing with adjustments either positive or negative for reserves, surpluses, deficits, and/or contributions.
Allowable Inflationary Adjustments
It is recognized that the cost of maintaining the improvements may increase slightly every year as a result of inflation.
The Districts that make up the original 27 districts do not include a cost of living adjustment factor. For Fiscal Year 2025–26, no change in assessment rates are proposed for the Original Districts.
The following table shows the residential and commercial front footages and the maximum assessment rate per UOB for each of the Original Districts. The maximum assessment rates do not exceed any preProposition 218 rates approved by the City.

1 PART I – PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Executive Summary
This Engineer’s Report contains language and wording from the “2013-14 Engineer’s Annual Levy Report” that was previously adopted by the City on July 9, 2013 through Resolution Bill No. 13-035 which preserves the continuity of information.
Introduction
The City of Hemet (“City”) annually levies and collects special assessments in order to provide and maintain improvements within the City’s Streetlight Maintenance Districts (“Districts”). The Districts were formed and are levied annually pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (“1972 Act”).
This Consolidated Annual Engineer’s Report (“Report”) describes the Districts and improvements, any proposed changes to the Districts or improvements and the proposed budgets and assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The assessments are based on the City’s estimated costs to maintain and service the improvements that provide a special benefit to properties assessed within the respective Districts. Each District’s costs and corresponding levy are based on an annual budget which includes all expenditures, deficits, surpluses, revenues, and reserves for each individual District.
For the purposes of this Report, the word “parcel” refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number by the Riverside County (“County”) Assessor’s Office. The County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor’s Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers to identify properties assessed for special district benefit assessments on the County tax roll.
Following consideration of public comments and written protests at a noticed public hearing, the City Council may order amendments to the Report or adopt the Report as submitted. Following final approval of the Report and confirmation of the assessments, the Council may then order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26 pursuant to the 1972 Act. In such case, the assessment information will be submitted to the County Auditor/Controller and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel in Fiscal Year 2025-26.

3 In the City of Hemet, streetlights are mounted on standard marbelite poles with mast arms, or mast arms attached to wood power poles. The lights are primarily LED with some remaining high-pressure sodium vapor lights.
In determining the location of streetlights, lights along residential streets are typically placed an average of 170 feet apart; whereas streetlights along major and secondary roads, in areas of typically commercial use, are placed an average of 70 feet apart.
The maintenance of existing streetlight facilities is performed by the City of Hemet using its own or contract personnel. The streetlight system is billed to the City on a monthly flat rate or metered basis.
These flat rates or metered amounts vary based upon the type and wattage of streetlights, and actual metered amounts. Electrical energy is purchased from the Southern California Edison Company.
A portion of the street lighting system is owned and maintained by the Southern California Edison Company. Electrical energy is purchased from the Southern California Edison Company at metered locations.
The plans and specifications for the improvements for the Districts are voluminous and are not included in this Report, but are on file in the office of the City Engineer and are by reference herein made a part of this Report.
