Bottom line: AWS Europe (London) Region has renewed its PASF accreditation for Official-Sensitive data through the 2026 audit.

What's happening: The AWS Europe (London) Region has been accredited under the PASF program since 2017, demonstrating its ability to securely store and process Official-Sensitive data. The UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) oversees the PASF program, which requires strict security controls and regular audits. AWS has invested in enhanced security measures to meet these requirements.

What to do: Security leaders should review AWS's security controls and procedures to ensure they meet the latest PASF standards. They should also consider implementing additional security measures to protect sensitive data, such as encrypting data at rest and in transit. This will help protect against potential security threats and maintain the trust of UK law enforcement agencies.
