FeatureOrganisations are choosing Amazon Web Services because of the breadth and depth of services, rate of innovation, and the most proven operational and security expertise. Our core infrastructure is built to satisfy the security requirements for military, global banks, and other high-sensitivity organisations.
This is backed by a deep set of cloud security tools, with more than 230 security, compliance, and governance services and key features. Using AWS, customers gain the control and confidence they need to securely run their business with the most flexible and secure cloud computing environment available today. As an AWS customer, organisations benefit from AWS datacentres and a network architected to protect their information, identities, applications, and devices.
We believe that virtually every application will be infused with machine learning and artificial intelligence. More than 100,000 customers are running machine learning on AWS. This includes regional companies such as Aramex, Careem, Maestro Pizza, and Tarjama. AWS also uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to help customers protect against security threats.
One service is Amazon Macie, which uses machine learning and pattern matching to continuously recognise sensitive data. Another service is Amazon GuardDuty, which is a managed threat detection service that identifies suspected attackers through integrated threat intelligence feeds and uses machine learning to detect anomalies in account and workload activity, including access patterns to data on S3.
The role of CISOs is to help guide the board and their peer C-suite leaders as they proactively protect their brands and customers. With the exponential growth of data in today’s businesses, there has been a new emphasis on IT’s role in securing that data.
Security, which used to be more infrastructure-centric, demands a new focus on software, and technology leaders have to be deeply involved in software development and investments. At the same time, security teams also require different skills and mindsets to succeed in new domains. So, while they might be technologists first and foremost, the most successful CISOs recognise that strong security goes well beyond bits and bytes.
