Customer managed KMS keys now available for Automated Reasoning checks

AWS announces support for customer managed AWS Key Management Service (KMS) keys in Automated Reasoning checks in Amazon Bedrock Guardrails. This enhancement enables you to use your own encryption keys to protect policy content and tests, giving you full control over key management. Automated Reasoning checks in Amazon Bedrock Guardrails is the first and only generative AI safeguard that helps correct factual errors from hallucinations using logically accurate and verifiable reasoning that explains why responses are correct. This feature enables organizations in regulated industries like healthcare, financial services, and government to adopt Automated Reasoning checks while meeting compliance requirements for customer-owned encryption keys. For example, a financial institution can now use Automated Reasoning checks to validate loan processing guidelines while maintaining full control over the encryption keys protecting their policy content. When creating an Automated Reasoning policy, you can now select a customer managed KMS key to encrypt your content rather than using the default key. Customer managed KMS key support for Automated Reasoning checks is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock Guardrails is offered: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), and Europe (Paris). To get started, see the following resources:
