Getting started with AWS Artifact

To get started using AWS Artifact, try out its key features in the AWS Artifact console. In the console, you can download AWS security and compliance reports, download and accept legal agreements, and subscribe to notifications about AWS Artifact documents.

Sign up for an AWS account

To get started with AWS, you need an AWS account. There are two ways to sign up for AWS. If you want complete control over account configuration and where your content is stored, or if you have regulated workloads such as HIPAA or FedRAMP, use Sign up for AWS (advanced). If you are a new user and want to use a login you already own to sign in to AWS and create an AWS environment with preconfigured defaults in select AWS Regions, use Sign up for AWS.
