What about Data Security?

  • Data security is always our prime focus, and we ensure that your data remains completely secure with our cloud providers.

  • In order to provide Security of the Cloud, AWS environments are continuously audited, and the

    infrastructure and services are approved to operate under several compliance standards and

    industry certifications across geographies and verticals.

  • Customers can use these certifications to validate the implementation and effectiveness of AWS security controls, including internationally recognised security best practices and certifications including ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, ISO 9001, PCI DSS Level 1 and SOC.

  • Further, Amazon Internet Services Private Limited, an Indian subsidiary of the Amazon Group which undertakes the resale and marketing of AWS services in India, has achieved full Cloud Service Provider (CSP) empanelment, and successfully completed the STQC (Standardisation Testing and Quality Certification) audit from the Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) for cloud services delivered from the AWS Asia Pacific (Mumbai) Region. For more information about AWS certifications and attestations, see the AWS Assurance Programs webpage. For information about general AWS security controls and service-specific security, see the Amazon Web Services: Overview of Security Processes white-paper.
