The AWS Artifact portal provides on-demand access to AWS’ security and compliance documents, also known as audit artifacts. Examples of audit artifacts include Service Organization Control (SOC) reports, Payment Card Industry (PCI) reports, and certifications from accreditation bodies across geographies and compliance verticals that validate the implementation and operating effectiveness of AWS security controls.
You can demonstrate the security and compliance of your AWS infrastructure and services by downloading audit artifacts from AWS Artifact, and submitting them to your auditors or regulators.
You can access the AWS Artifact portal directly from the AWS Management Console »
