Amazon EVS now in scope for FedRAMP Class C

The Amazon Elastic VMware Service (EVS) service is now in scope for FedRAMP Class C (formerly Moderate baseline) in all United States Regions.

The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a US government-wide program that delivers a standard approach to the security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. Amazon EVS lets you run the latest VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) software directly within your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) on EC2 bare-metal instances. You can set up a complete VCF environment in just a few hours, enabling rapid workload migration to AWS to help you eliminate aging infrastructure, reduce operational risks, and meet critical timelines for exiting your data center.
