Frequently Asked Questions

Which AWS services are PCI DSS compliant?

Over 100 AWS services are PCI DSS compliant, including EC2, RDS, Lambda, S3, KMS, and API Gateway. AWS provides a shared responsibility model where AWS secures the infrastructure and you secure your application and data configuration.

How does AWS handle SOC 2 compliance for fintech?

AWS is SOC 2 compliant for its infrastructure. Your application inherits this compliance for the infrastructure layer. You are responsible for SOC 2 controls at the application level — access management, logging, change management, and data protection.

Can we achieve PCI DSS compliance with serverless architecture?

Yes. Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, and other serverless services are PCI DSS compliant. Serverless can actually reduce your PCI scope because AWS manages the operating system and network layers.
