About the team
Unified Auth is responsible for securing every service transaction within Amazon SDO’s service-oriented architecture (SOA) by authenticating the services involved in the transaction, authorizing APIs access, and enforcing least-privilege access to Amazon’s business data such as Cart, Order, Customer Identity, Item, Employee Information and more. Unified Auth’s systems are classified as Maximally Secure Applications (MSA) by Amazon Security as they control access to all Amazon services. Amazon’s SOA is large, complex, and ever-growing. A single Amazon customer interaction such as adding an item into cart, proceeding to checkout, adding/changing payment methods, confirming purchase, etc. spans tens to hundreds of inter-service interactions that must be secured and observed using Unified Auth’s systems. Stores, Alexa, Ring, IMDB, Prime Video, Advertisement, Selling Partners, Pharmacy, Ordering and Payments, Fulfillment Centers, and Amazon’s internal systems such as PXT rely on Unified Auth solutions to meet rising access control security and privacy standards, such as Digital Markets Act (DMA) compliance, GDPR, and SOC 2 Type II certification.
