AWS played an instrumental role in helping the government recover quickly from the crisis. By deploying its robust cloud infrastructure and security solutions, AWS enabled the swift restoration of essential services, minimizing disruption to the public.
Additionally, AWS worked with the Indonesian government to fortify the system’s defenses, implementing advanced security measures to prevent future breaches. The summit reinforced AWS’s commitment to providing solutions that protect sensitive data and ensure the continuity of critical national functions, even in times of crisis.
