We continue to expand the scope of our assurance programs at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and we’re pleased to announce that AWS has successfully completed the 2023 Cloud Computing Compliance Controls Catalogue (C5) attestation cycle with 170 services in scope. This alignment with C5 requirements demonstrates our ongoing commitment to adhere to the heightened expectations for cloud service providers. AWS customers in Germany and across Europe can run their applications on AWS Regions in scope of the C5 report with the assurance that AWS aligns with C5 requirements.
The C5 attestation scheme is backed by the German government and was introduced by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) in 2016. AWS has adhered to the C5 requirements since their inception. C5 helps organizations demonstrate operational security against common cybersecurity threats when using cloud services within the context of the German government’s Security Recommendations for Cloud Computing Providers.
Independent third-party auditors evaluated AWS for the period of October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2023. The C5 report illustrates the compliance status of AWS for both the basic and additional criteria of C5. Customers can download the C5 report through AWS Artifact, a self-service portal for on-demand access to AWS compliance reports. Sign in to AWS Artifact in the AWS Management Console, or learn more at Getting Started with AWS Artifact.
AWS has added the following 16 services to the current C5 scope:
- AWS AppFabric
- AWS Artifact
- Amazon Bedrock
- Amazon Braket
- Amazon Chime SDK
- AWS Clean Rooms
- AWS Fault Injection Service (formerly AWS Fault Injection Simulator)
- AWS HealthImaging
- AWS HealthOmics
- Amazon Inspector
- AWS IoT Device Defender
- AWS IoT TwinMaker
- Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (Amazon MWAA)
- Amazon Managed Grafana
- AWS User Notifications
- AWS Wickr
With the 2023 C5 attestation, we’re also expanding the scope to two new Regions — Europe (Spain) and Europe (Zurich). In addition, the services offered in the Asia Pacific (Singapore), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Milan), Europe (Paris), and Europe (Stockholm) Regions remain in scope of this attestation.
