The new Edge browser will soon warn you if one of your passwords shows up in a data breach - a feature based on an Azure service that enterprises can already use to protect user passwords. Browser extensions like PassProtect warn you if the password you're using to log into a site is known to have been compromised and listed in a data breach, often based on the excellent Have I Been Pwned service.
Today, customers use the AWS Snow Family to collect and process data, run local computing applications, and move large volumes of data from log files, digital media, genomic data, and sensor data from connected devices to AWS. As customers seek to extend the reach of their cloud infrastructure into more edge locations, new use cases are emerging for edge computing in more situations like vehicles, industrial operations, and remote and austere sites that require a rugged and secure device with even greater portability and a smaller form factor than the AWS Snow Family of devices has traditionally provided. AWS Snowcone provides maximum flexibility for edge computing environments, offering a small, ultra-portable, rugged, and military grade secure device to run applications and migrate data to AWS. AWS Snowcone measures 9 inches x 6 inches x 3 inches and weighs 4.5 lbs.
