AWS Artifact is your self-service portal for AWS’s compliance reports and agreements — things like SOC reports, ISO certifications, and PCI documentation.
When it comes up
The tell is “download compliance reports” or “obtain AWS’s audit certifications for our own auditors.” Artifact provides those documents on demand. It’s about compliance evidence, not detecting or fixing anything.
