AWS Backup now supports copying Amazon S3 backups across Regions and accounts in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

AWS Backup adds support to copy your Amazon S3 backups across AWS Regions and accounts in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.

With Amazon S3 backup copies in multiple AWS Regions, you can maintain separate, protected copies of your backup data to help meet compliance requirements for data protection and disaster recovery. Amazon S3 backup copies across accounts offers an additional layer of protection against inadvertent or unauthorized actions.

The capability to copy Amazon S3 backups across AWS Regions and accounts, supported in all AWS Commercial Regions, is now available in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. For more information on regional availability and pricing, see AWS Backup pricing page.
