Compliance validation for Kiro

Kiro participates in the following compliance programs.

• HIPAA: Kiro IDE and CLI are HIPAA eligible. HIPAA eligibility means Kiro can be used as part of a HIPAA-compliant architecture. Your organization remains responsible for configuring its use of Kiro to meet HIPAA requirements.
• ISO/IEC 27001:2022: Kiro is included in the defined scope of AWS's ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. The certification is independently verified by EY CertifyPoint, an ISO certification body accredited by the Dutch Accreditation Council.

Review the public AWS ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certificate and the current AWS services-in-scope listing for certification and coverage details.
