With the increasing sophistication and frequency of cyber threats, companies often rely on partners to help provide security services and solutions. Amazon Web Services (AWS) Managed Security Service Provider competency is a hallmark of reliability for MSSPs and other vendors, signifying their capability to provide effective security solutions on AWS’s robust platform.

Most cloud providers use a shared security responsibility model, meaning they secure some areas of the environment but expect the customer to establish security controls in others. AWS is one of the many cloud providers that follow the concept of shared responsibility. Generally speaking, they split responsibility into two categories. AWS focuses on the security of the cloud, such as the infrastructure that runs all AWS services.
