AWS Wickr now allows you to establish a network in the Asia Pacific (Tokyo) and Asia Pacific (Singapore) Regions to help you meet data residency requirements, and other obligations.

AWS Wickr is a security-first messaging and collaboration service with features designed to help keep your internal and external communications secure, private, and compliant. Wickr protects one-to-one and group messaging, voice and video calling, file sharing, screen sharing, and location sharing with end-to-end encryption. Customers have full administrative control over data, which includes addressing information governance polices, configuring ephemeral messaging options, and deleting credentials for lost or stolen devices. You can log both internal and external conversations in a Wickr network to a private data store that you manage, for data retention and auditing purposes.

AWS Wickr is available in the AWS US East (Northern Virginia), AWS GovCloud (US-West), AWS Canada (Central), AWS Europe (London, Frankfurt, and Stockholm), and now in AWS Asia Pacific (Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo) Regions.
