    Yes that metadata can exist but can’t that be obscured if AWS isn’t connected to directly?

    I think some of the technical details of how the ASD intends to ensure data protection/confidentiality/integrity are omitted for national security reasons.

      It looks like it will be on prem, but then i dont even understand why they would involve amazon at all? Just use the existing public solutions. As soon as any major part of a system that is connected to the internet has proprietary code in it, you cant really trust it to protect secret information anymore.

        It’s won’t be on-prem, but it will be dedicated data centres, built and run by Amazon, so almost the same as. Why? Because AWS runs better data centres than the gov ever could.

        Gov is outsourcing the physical infrastructure risk, just like any other ocmpany that puts their stuff in the cloud.
