AWS – Announcing the New AWS Wickr Admin Console
AWS Wickr is excited to announce a redesigned admin experience that’s now fully integrated with the AWS Management Console. We’ve made updates to provide a more intuitive layout, easier navigation, and a more accessible experience. The new console uses the AWS Cloudscape design system for front-end components to give you the consistent and familiar experience you get with the AWS Management Console.
AWS Wickr is a security-first messaging and collaboration service designed to keep internal and external communications secure, private, and compliant. It protects one-to-one and group messaging, voice and video calling, file sharing, screen sharing, and location sharing with end-to-end encryption. Customers have full administrative control to enforce information governance policies, configure ephemeral messaging, and to log both internal and external conversations in an AWS Wickr network to a private data store for data retention and auditing purposes.
AWS Wickr is available in commercial AWS Regions including US East (N. Virginia), Canada (Central), Asia Pacific (Malaysia, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo), and Europe (London, Frankfurt, Stockholm, and Zurich). It is also available in GovCloud (US-West) as Department of Defense Impact Level 5 (DoD IL5)-authorized AWS WickrGov.
The new console experience will be made available in phases over the coming weeks. Administrators will still be able to access the classic console for a limited period to ensure a smooth transition to the new experience. To learn more and get started, see the following resources:
