This post announces the availability of a new independent assessment report available on AWS Artifact analyzing how Landing Zone Accelerator on AWS (LZA) can automatically deploy multi-account environments in Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Australian Government Information Security Manual (ISM) security controls coverage at scale. The report includes findings from an independent third-party analysis conducted by AWS Partner gwi.digital. In addition to the report, we talk about ISM compliance applicability to LZA and a new testing mechanism for measuring configuration drift, which together can provide Australian customers with a documented and validated foundation to accelerate IRAP assessment readiness. Background Australian organizations in public sector, defense, and critical infrastructure agencies must build cloud environments that meet (ISM requirements. The ISM defines 1,081 security control requirements across 22 guideline chapters. Demonstrating compliance is central to achieving an IRAP assessment outcome, but assessments typically require months of preparation, evidence gathering, and testing. In October 2025, we introduced the LZA Universal Configuration and LZA Compliance Workbook. LZA provisions a multi-account security architecture that automates the deployment of nearly 200 security controls based on AWS Well-Architected pillars and AWS security best practices. The LZA Compliance Workbook, available on AWS Artifact, documents how the Universal Configuration (UC) maps to technical security requirements from 17 global compliance frameworks, with more …
