We are very proud to announce that Amazon Web Services (AWS) has officially joined the Sheltered Harbor Alliance program. This is just the beginning of an exciting partnership. Why will this be of great benefit to the industry?

In the event of a cyberattack or other disruptive incident, organizations would have the ability to quickly restore operations from their trusted secure data vault, minimizing downtime and financial losses. For financial institutions seeking to enhance their cyber resilience, the combination of AWS and Sheltered Harbor offers a proven architecture to safeguard critical financial assets.
