Disruptive Technology History
• Then
– Storage
– Communications
– Computing
– Transportation
– Manufacturing
– Discreet Components
• Now
– Social
– Mobile
– Analytics/Big Data/AI
– Cloud
– Smart Things/IoT
– Blockchain
Challenges faced in GRC by disruptive technologies
• Endpoints
– From a single, non network connected computing device to multiple (desktops, laptops, tablets, mobile
phones), mixed platforms
– Smart Appliances (Kitchen, TV, etc.), Consumer IoT (Smart Home, Alexa, Dash, etc.),
Commercial/Industrial IoT (Environmental, Manufacturing, etc.), also mixed platforms
• Data
– Wider breadth of sources, formats, and technologies to ingest, process, store, retrieve, analyze and
display
– Growth in the four v’s (volume, variety, velocity and veracity)
• Policy
– Attempting to apply legacy policies to disruptive technologies
– Looked at as not agile/slow to adopt disruptive technologies/slow to apply to disruptive technologies
• Shadow IT
– The nature of disruptive technologies supports the adoption of them by non IT users
– Disruptive technologies tend to be enablers to avoid traditional methods of acquisition
Who is using AWS (US and Abroad)?
• Federal Government
• Government-Sponsored Enterprise
• State

– Separate Namespace
– Separate Authentication (Tied to a non-GovCloud account for billing purposes - no Root
Account)
– 46 of the 127 AWS Services Available (EC2 Classic not Available)
– US Citizen only Access
• Physical Location

Conclusion
• AWS provides a number of services to support your frameworks + controls, in addition to
core infrastructure (server + storage) capabilities.
• AWS provides guidance (in the form of the CAF and WAF) for organizations which do not
have an existing framework to base their cloud adoption model on.
• Getting started on AWS is easy; with the free tier, you can experiment with a number of
services without incurring significant cost.
• Adoption of AWS in your organization can be as easy or as hard as you want to make it; start
simple and iterate.

Standard, external-facing Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) Multi-AZ architecture with separate subnets for different application tiers and private (back-end) subnets for application and database. The Multi-AZ architecture helps ensure high availability. Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets for encrypted web content, logging, and backup data. Standard Amazon VPC security groups for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances and load balancers used in the sample application stack. The security groups limit access to only necessary services. Three-tier Linux web application using Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing, which can be modified and/or bootstrapped with customer application. A secured bastion login host to facilitate command-line Secure Shell (SSH) access to Amazon EC2 instances for troubleshooting and systems administration activities. Encrypted, Multi-AZ Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) MySQL database. Logging, monitoring, and alerts using AWS CloudTrail, Amazon CloudWatch, and AWS Config rules (where available).
