We are excited to announce the launch of a completely redesigned Amazon Macie with dramatic price reduction that lowers the price by 80% to over 90% with volume discounting tiers (see the New Macie Pricing). This meaningful price reduction was achieved by a multi-month effort to rearchitect Macie’s data discovery engine, deeply integrating with Amazon S3 to make better use of the underlying storage and compute resources and perform even faster and more scalable detections. In addition to the price reduction, new capabilities and enhancements have been added, including updated machine learning (ML) models for more accurate identification of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), support for customer-defined data types for proprietary or unique sensitive data, and native multi-account management through AWS Organizations that allows for management of up to 5,000 accounts from a single account.
