AWS GovCloud (US) Regions are designed to host sensitive data, regulated workloads, and address the most stringent U.S. government security and compliance requirements. With today’s release, Route 53 now enables customers in the AWS GovCloud (US-East and US-West) Regions to define AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) create, edit, and delete policies for individual or groups of DNS record sets within a Route 53 private hosted zone.

Today, we are launching preview of the AWS Database Encryption SDK, an upgrade to the existing Amazon DynamoDB Encryption Client, which enables you to include client-side encryption in your DynamoDB workloads. With this launch, you can more easily perform attribute-level encryption, enabling you to encrypt specific attribute values before storing them in your DynamoDB table. This lets you protect sensitive data in-transit and at-rest, as data cannot be exposed unless decrypted by your application. This new release also lets you easily search on encrypted attributes without decrypting the entire database beforehand. This lets you find the right information quickly to download to your application while your data remains securely encrypted within the database.

We are excited to announce the addition of 10 new AWS Security Hub detective controls to the AWS Control Tower controls library. These new controls target services such as Amazon APIGateway, AWS CodeBuild, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, Amazon Elastic Load Balancer, Amazon Redshift, Amazon SageMaker, and AWS WAF. These new controls help you meet control objectives, such as establish logging and monitoring, limiting network access and encrypting data at rest, enhancing your governance posture.
