Security in Amazon Simple Email Service - Amazon Simple Email Service

Security in Amazon Simple Email Service

Cloud security at AWS is the highest priority. As an AWS customer, you benefit from a data center and network architecture that is built to meet the requirements of the most security-sensitive organizations.

Security is a shared responsibility between AWS and you. The shared responsibility model describes this as security of the cloud and security in the cloud:

  • Security of the cloud – AWS is responsible for protecting the infrastructure that runs AWS services in the AWS Cloud. AWS also provides you with services that you can use securely. Third-party auditors regularly test and verify the effectiveness of our security as part of the AWS Compliance Programs. To learn about the compliance programs that apply to Amazon Simple Email Service, see AWS Services in Scope by Compliance Program.

  • Security in the cloud – Your responsibility is determined by the AWS service that you use. You are also responsible for other factors including the sensitivity of your data, your company’s requirements, and applicable laws and regulations

This documentation helps you understand how to apply the shared responsibility model when using Amazon Simple Email Service. It shows you how to configure Amazon Simple Email Service to meet your security and compliance objectives. You also learn how to use other AWS services that help you to monitor and secure your Amazon Simple Email Service resources.

Note

If you need to report abuse of AWS resources, including email spam and malware distribution, do not use the feedback link on any of the pages of this developer guide, as the form is received by the AWS Documentation team, not AWS Trust & Safety. Instead, on the How do I report abuse of AWS resources? page, follow the directions to contact the AWS Trust & Safety team to report any type of Amazon AWS abuse.
