Amazon Web Services maintains a team of security, privacy, and compliance experts who help customers meet its own compliance obligations. The compliance team also represents the “customer voice,” working with AWS’ engineering and operations teams as well as external regulatory bodies to help ensure customers’ needs are met.

AWS invests heavily in the development of robust and innovative compliance processes. The AWS compliance framework for online services maps controls to multiple regulatory standards. This enables AWS to design and build services using a common set of controls, streamlining compliance across a range of regulations today and as they evolve.

AWS compliance processes also make it easier for customers to achieve compliance across multiple services and meet their changing needs efficiently. Together, security-enhanced technology and effective compliance processes enable AWS – and by extension, CX Index, to maintain and expand a rich set of third-party certifications. These help customers demonstrate compliance readiness to customers, auditors, and regulators.
