Whether to streamline access, leverage variable capacity and anticipated security of cloud platforms, or decrease pressure on IT teams, transition to the cloud continues to grow. In its report, 10 Hotspots in State & Local Government Contracting for 2024, GovWin by Deltek, Inc. reported a 39% increase in bid requests from state and local governments for cloud service types including infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service, software-as-a-service, and storage-as-a-service.

Are You Doing Enough to Protect Data in AWS GovCloud Regions?
As governments and agencies are increasingly moving sensitive and confidential information to secure cloud regions such as AWS GovCloud, it is essential to pay attention to security vulnerabilities that may exist despite the platform’s compliance with the complex cybersecurity requirements mandated by the U.S. government. One area that stands out is the lack of an embedded service for regular and persistent malware scanning within the GovCloud storage network. Malware protection for GovCloud regions is paramount for ensuring reliable and secure operations, and without it the risk of cyberattacks is very real and very high. Fortunately, there is one solution for AWS GovCloud in-tenant malware scanning in the AWS Marketplace. The CSS malware scanning service operates in parallel to workflows and can be configured for real-time scanning of static and moving data.

When A DIY Lambda & ClamAV Antivirus Solution for S3 Isn't Worth It
Cloud Storage Security's (CSS) malware protection solution was built when our founders observed that cloud application workflows that rely on cloud storage have become a massive attack vector, and that building an in-house, end-to-end, malware detection system with sophisticated threat detection engines was a costly undertaking for any business with data in the cloud. This is especially true for workflows that ingest third party files, store them in the cloud and then share them downstream.
