Consumer Data Right (CDR) and AWS Security 

A Practical Guide to Achieving Consumer Data Right Accreditation

Meeting Consumer Data Right (CDR) security requirements in the cloud can feel complex. This guide provides clear, practical guidance for organizations hosting CDR environments on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

This guide helps you understand how to:

  • Scope your CDR environment across infrastructure, applications, endpoints, and governance
  • Apply a phased roadmap to reduce complexity and improve alignment across teams
  • Use AWS identity, access, logging, and security services to meet CDR requirements
  • Protect CDR data through encryption, lifecycle management, and monitoring
  • Establish governance, training, and incident response practices that support accreditation

This is designed for:

  • CDR data holders and accredited data recipients
  • Technology, security, and compliance leaders operating in AWS
  • Organizations preparing for CDR accreditation or strengthening existing controls
