AWS Network Firewall becomes available in the AWS European Sovereign Cloud

AWS Network Firewall is now accessible within the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, enhancing security options for European customers. This launch is particularly beneficial for industries that are highly regulated, as well as government agencies and organizations that have stringent data sovereignty requirements. These entities can now implement AWS Network Firewall to safeguard their sensitive workloads while ensuring full compliance with European Union (EU) data protection laws.

This development allows users of the AWS European Sovereign Cloud to utilize the same robust features of AWS Network Firewall found in other AWS Regions. Importantly, this expansion ensures that all data and operations remain within EU borders and are controlled under EU jurisdiction. AWS Network Firewall is a managed service that offers critical network protections for Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), scaling automatically with network traffic to maintain high availability without requiring users to manage the underlying infrastructure.

For further details on the availability of AWS Network Firewall, customers can refer to the AWS Region Table. Additional information can be found on the AWS Network Firewall product page and within the service documentation.
