US tech giant Amazon has been awarded a substantial $1.3 billion contract to develop a highly secure cloud infrastructure for Australian military intelligence, announced by Canberra on Thursday. This custom-built cloud server, to be managed by Amazon Web Services (AWS), is designated as "top secret" and will serve as a critical asset for storing sensitive Australian military and intelligence data.
The Australian government highlighted that this initiative will not only bolster national security capabilities but also enhance interoperability and deepen collaboration with the United States, a longstanding ally in defense and intelligence matters. According to a government statement, the project reflects Australia's commitment to strengthening its defense posture and cyber resilience amid escalating global cybersecurity threats.

Rachel Noble, the head of Australia's spy agency, emphasized the strategic importance of the cloud infrastructure in supporting the country's "Redspice" intelligence program. This program aims to mitigate the increasing risks posed by cyber attacks and other security challenges in the digital age.
As part of the agreement, Amazon will establish three data centers across Australia to facilitate the secure storage and processing of classified information. This infrastructure investment is expected to provide robust support for Australia's defense and intelligence operations, ensuring data sovereignty and enhancing operational efficiency.
The announcement underscores Amazon's role as a key partner in advancing Australia's national security interests through cutting-edge technology solutions. The deployment of these advanced cloud capabilities is set to strengthen Australia's defense posture and contribute to broader cybersecurity efforts in collaboration with international allies.
In Sydney, government officials expressed confidence that the partnership with Amazon will significantly bolster Australia's cyber defenses while fostering closer ties with the United States in defense and intelligence cooperation.
