Wed, 11th Dec 2024

CyberCX has announced the achievement of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Digital Sovereignty Competency, enhancing its capacity to assist businesses across the Asia-Pacific region with their digital sovereignty needs.

CyberCX is now one of 18 partners globally and one of only two in the Asia Pacific to obtain the AWS Digital Sovereignty Competency. This accomplishment adds to CyberCX's existing portfolio of AWS competencies, which includes the Security Services Competency and the Migration and Modernisation Consultancy Competency.

The AWS Digital Sovereignty Competency recognises CyberCX's technical expertise and history of customer success in data and cloud infrastructure management. The competency involves ensuring control and authority over data, managing data residency, access, resilience, and digital self-sufficiency.

John Taylor, Executive Director of AWS, Cloud Security, and Solutions at CyberCX, stated, "As the leading provider of cloud services in the region CyberCX, we see firsthand a clear, customer desire for digital sovereignty and cloud security capabilities. We are proud of our deep expertise across AWS and we are committed to helping customers leverage AWS's agility, extensive services, and rapid innovation through our Sovereign Secure Cloud framework."

He further commented, "Achieving this, our eighth competency, comes at a critical time as it strengthens our ability to support both current and new customers with their cloud migrations across AWS's expanding regions. The upcoming launch of the New Zealand AWS Regions, along with AWS's continued growth in Australia, means that there has never been a more important time for our customers to partner with a specialised team on their cloud sovereignty and security journey."

CyberCX's services available through the AWS Marketplace include designing and deploying the CyberCX Secure Control Tower, Data Lake solutions, and assessments of existing AWS environments with a focus on Digital Sovereignty.

Taylor remarked, "The AWS Marketplace now provides our clients with access to Digital Sovereignty services. Here, you can procure services such as the design and deployment of the CyberCX Secure Control Tower, Data Lake, or assessments of current AWS environments with a focus on Digital Sovereignty. This offering underscores CyberCX's advanced capabilities in Digital Sovereignty, making us one of only a select few AWS partners in Australia and New Zealand to have achieved this level of accreditation."

The AWS Competency Program is designed to support the integration and deployment of AWS's scalable and flexible solutions, helping customers identify partners with profound industry expertise to aid in their business growth. CyberCX's achievement of the Digital Sovereignty Competency aligns it as a partner ready to meet the evolving needs of businesses in the region.
