Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces the launch of AWS Marketplace in the AWS Secret Region, an expansion of the AWS Marketplace for the U.S. Intelligence Community (ICMP) program. First deployed in 2016, the AWS Marketplace for ICMP is a digital catalog with software listings from independent software vendors (ISVs) that makes it easier for customers in the intelligence community to find, test, buy, and deploy software that runs on AWS.

With this announcement, government customers now have access to 30 ISVs and 170 products in the AWS Secret Region, an air-gapped cloud accredited to support workloads up to the Secret U.S. security classification level. AWS scans, tests, and verifies that all products work in the AWS Secret Region before listing them in ICMP. For classified deployments, all ICMP ISVs must be vetted for foreign ownership control and influence (FOCI) by the government prior to beginning contract performance.
