- schwank 6y agoGovCloud is a separate partition from Secret. Different regulatory framework alignment and customer onboarding. GovCloud customers only need be a US person or entity, beyond that any further regulatory alignment is up to the customer. AWS does not audit the IAM user base for nationality or any compliance requirements. Disclaimer: I am an AWS Public Sector Solutions Architect.
- BillinghamJ 6y agoAh it looks to be aws-iso (c2s.ic.gov, top secret) and aws-iso-b (sc2s.sgov.gov, secret)?
- peterwwillis 6y agoSo, just to clarify: if a "customer" who happens to employ tens of thousands of people also employs non-US citizens (such as the DoD's foreign national IT contractors), then non-US citizens would have access to GovCloud.
