Amazon Web Services (AWS) is excited to release the Spring 2026 System and Organization Controls (SOC) 1 and 2 reports in machine-readable OSCAL format alongside the PDF version of the reports. The reports cover 188 services over the 12-month period from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026, giving customers a full year of assurance. These reports demonstrate our continuous commitment to adhering to the heightened expectations of cloud service providers.
AWS is the first major cloud provider to offer key compliance reports to customers in the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL), as of June 2026. OSCAL is an open source, machine-readable (JSON) format for security information. The SOC 1 and SOC 2 report package in OSCAL format is now available as a distinct package in AWS Artifact, marking a milestone toward open, standards-based compliance automation. This machine-readable version of the SOC report package enables workflow automation to reduce manual processing time and modernize security and compliance processes. Your use cases for this content are innovative, and we want to hear about them through the contact information found in the OSCAL report package.
You can download the Spring 2026 SOC 1 and 2 reports in OSCAL format through AWS Artifact, a self-service portal for on-demand access to AWS compliance reports. Sign in to AWS Artifact in the AWS Management Console, or learn more at Getting Started with AWS Artifact. The SOC 3 report can be found on the AWS SOC Compliance page and in AWS Artifact.
AWS strives to continuously bring services into the scope of its compliance programs to help customers meet their architectural and regulatory needs. You can view the current list of services in scope on our Services in Scope page. As an AWS customer, you can reach out to your AWS account team if you have any questions or feedback about SOC compliance.
