Today, Amazon Bedrock announces the expansion of the Reserved service tier designed for workloads requiring predictable performance and guaranteed tokens-per-minute capacity. The Reserved tier provides the ability to reserve prioritized compute capacity, keeping service levels predictable for your mission critical applications. It also includes the flexibility to allocate different input and output tokens-per-minute capacities to match the exact requirements of your workload and control cost. This is particularly valuable because many workloads have asymmetric token usage patterns. For instance, summarization tasks consume many input tokens but generate fewer output tokens, while content generation applications require less input and more output capacity. When your application needs more tokens-per-minute capacity than what you reserved , the service automatically overflows to the pay-as-you-go Standard tier, ensuring uninterrupted operations. The Reserved tier and is available today for Anthropic Claude Opus 4.5 and Claude Haiku 4.5. Customers can reserve capacity for 1 month or 3 month duration. Customers pay a fixed price per 1K tokens-per-minute and are billed monthly.
With the expansion of the Reserved service tier, Amazon Bedrock continues to provide more choice to customers, helping them develop, scale, and deploy applications and agents that improve productivity and customer experiences while balancing performance and cost requirements.
For more information about the AWS Regions where Amazon Bedrock Reserved tier is available, refer to the Documentation. To get access to the Reserved tier, please contact your AWS account team.

El esfuerzo más reciente de Microsoft contra el cibercrimen interrumpe un servicio global de fraude
Por: Steven Masada, asesor jurídico adjunto, Unidad de Crímenes Digitales de Microsoft.
Microsoft anunció una acción legal coordinada en Estados Unidos y, por primera vez, en el Reino Unido para interrumpir RedVDS, un servicio global de suscripción a ciberdelincuencia que alimenta millones en pérdidas por fraude. Estos esfuerzos forman parte de una operación conjunta más amplia con las fuerzas del orden internacionales, incluidas las autoridades alemanas y Europol, que ha permitido a Microsoft y sus socios incautar infraestructuras maliciosas clave y desconectar el mercado RedVDS, un paso importante para desmantelar las redes detrás del fraude habilitado por IA, como las estafas inmobiliarias.
Por tan solo 24 dólares estadounidenses al mes, RedVDS proporciona a los delincuentes acceso a ordenadores virtuales desechables que hacen que el fraude sea barato, escalable y difícil de rastrear. Servicios como estos se han convertido, de manera discreta, en una fuerza impulsora detrás del actual auge de la delincuencia cibernética, lo que impulsa ataques que dañan a individuos, empresas y comunidades en todo el mundo. Desde marzo de 2025, la actividad habilitada por RedVDS ha generado cerca de 40 millones de dólares estadounidenses en pérdidas reportadas por fraude solo en Estados Unidos. Entre las víctimas está H2-Pharma, una empresa farmacéutica con sede en Alabama que perdió más de 7,3 millones de dólares — dinero que se supone que debe usarse para sostener tratamientos contra el cáncer que salvan vidas, medicamentos para la salud mental y medicamentos para alergias infantiles a pacientes de todo el país. En otro caso, la Gatehouse Dock Condominium Association en Florida fue estafada con casi 500.000 dólares, fondos aportados por residentes y propietarios para reparaciones esenciales. Ambas organizaciones se unen a Microsoft como codemandantes en esta acción civil.
Pero estos casos representan solo una fracción del daño. El fraude y las estafas con frecuencia no se denuncian, las víctimas son globales y los ciberdelincuentes recurren de manera rutinaria entre plataformas y proveedores de servicios. Para el individuo, el fraude tiene efectos duraderos que van más allá de la pérdida financiera, para llegar al bienestar emocional, la salud, las relaciones y la estabilidad a largo plazo. Como resultado, el verdadero impacto de la actividad habilitada por RedVDS es mucho mayor que los cerca de 40 millones de dólares estadounidenses que Microsoft puede observar de manera directa.
Qué es RedVDS y por qué es importante
RedVDS es un servicio de suscripción online que forma parte del creciente ecosistema de ciberdelincuencia como servicio, donde los ciberdelincuentes compran y venden servicios y herramientas para lanzar ataques a gran escala. Proporciona acceso a ordenadores virtuales baratos, eficaces y desechables que ejecutan software sin licencia, incluido Windows, lo que permite a los delincuentes operar de forma rápida, anónima y a través de fronteras.

Los ciberdelincuentes utilizan RedVDS para una amplia variedad de actividades, incluidos el envío de correos electrónicos de phishing de alto volumen, el alojamiento de infraestructuras de estafas y la facilitación de esquemas de fraude. RedVDS suele combinarse con herramientas de IA generativa que ayudan a identificar objetivos de alto valor más rápido y a generar hilos de mensajes multimedia más realistas que imitan correspondencias legítimas. En cientos de casos, Microsoft observó que los atacantes aumentaban aún más su engaño con el aprovechamiento de herramientas de IA de intercambio de rostros, manipulación de vídeo y clonación de voz para hacerse pasar por individuos y engañar a las víctimas.
En solo un mes, más de 2.600 máquinas virtuales RedVDS distintas enviaron una media de un millón de mensajes de phishing al día solo a clientes de Microsoft. Aunque la mayoría fueron bloqueados o señalados como parte de los 600 millones de ciberataques que Microsoft bloquea al día, el volumen hizo que un pequeño porcentaje pudiera haber conseguido llegar a las bandejas de entrada de los objetivos. Desde septiembre de 2025, los ataques habilitados por RedVDS han provocado la compromisión o el acceso fraudulento de más de 191.000 organizaciones en todo el mundo. Estas cifras representan solo un subconjunto de las cuentas afectadas en todos los proveedores tecnológicos, esto ilustra lo rápido que esta infraestructura aumenta la escala de los ciberataques.
Densidad global de cuentas de correo electrónico de Microsoft comprometidas que usan RedVDS desde septiembre de 2025 hasta diciembre de 2025. Los cinco países más afectados son Estados Unidos, Canadá, Reino Unido, Francia e India.
Cómo RedVDS permite el fraude
Una de las formas más comunes en que los ataques habilitados por RedVDS resultan en pérdidas financieras es a través del fraude por desvío de pagos, también conocido como compromiso de correo electrónico empresarial, o «BEC» (por sus siglas en inglés). En estos esquemas, los atacantes obtienen acceso no autorizado a cuentas de correo electrónico, monitorizan de manera silenciosa las conversaciones en curso y esperan el momento adecuado, como un pago próximo o una transferencia bancaria. En ese momento, se hacen pasar por una persona de confianza y redirigen fondos, a menudo a través de mover el dinero en cuestión de segundos. Tanto H2-Pharma como la Gatehouse Dock Condominium Association fueron objetivo mediante sofisticados esquemas BEC que aprovechaban la confianza y el tiempo.

RedVDS también se ha utilizado de manera importante para facilitar estafas de desviación de pagos inmobiliarios, una de las formas de fraude cibernético de más rápido crecimiento. En estos casos, los atacantes comprometen las cuentas de agentes inmobiliarios, agentes de depósito en garantía o compañías de títulos y envían correos electrónicos estratégicamente sincronizados con instrucciones de pago fraudulentas diseñadas para desviar fondos de cierre, pagos en depósito en garantía y otras transacciones importantes. Para familias y para el primero en general. Microsoft ha observado que la actividad habilitada por RedVDS afecta a más de 9.000 clientes solo en el sector inmobiliario, con un impacto en especial severo en países como Canadá y Australia.
Y la amenaza va mucho más allá del sector inmobiliario. Las estafas habilitadas por RedVDS han afectado a la construcción, la manufactura, la sanidad, la logística, la educación, los servicios legales y muchos otros sectores, para interrumpir desde las líneas de producción hasta los pacientes.
Una respuesta global a una amenaza global
El cibercrimen hoy en día se basa en infraestructuras compartidas, lo que significa que interrumpir a los atacantes individuales no es suficiente. A través de esta acción coordinada, Microsoft ha interrumpido las operaciones de RedVDS, incluida la incautación de dos dominios que alojan el marketplace y el portal de clientes de RedVDS, además de sentar las bases para identificar a las personas detrás de ellos.
Las acciones legales de Microsoft se ven reforzadas por la estrecha colaboración con socios policiales de todo el mundo, lo que interrumpe aún más la operación maliciosa. La Fiscalía de Alemania en Frankfurt am Main – Oficina Central para la Lucha contra el Delito en Internet (ZIT) y la Oficina Estatal de Policía Criminal Alemana de Brandeburgo. Al mismo tiempo y como parte de esta disrupción continua, Microsoft también trabaja de manera estrecha con las fuerzas de seguridad internacionales, incluido el Centro Europeo de Ciberdelitos (EC3, por sus siglas en inglés) de Europol, para interrumpir la red más amplia de servidores y redes de pago que soportaban a los clientes de RedVDS como parte de esta disrupción continua.
Lo que pueden hacer las personas y las organizaciones
Estamos muy agradecidos con H2– -Pharma y a la Gatehouse Dock Condominium Association por su disposición a dar un paso adelante y compartir sus experiencias. Su cooperación, combinada con la inteligencia de amenazas de Microsoft, hizo posible esta acción y ayudará a proteger a futuras víctimas. Ser víctima de una estafa nunca debería llevar estigma. Estos ataques son llevados a cabo por grupos criminales organizados y profesionales que interceptan y manipulan comunicaciones legítimas entre partes de confianza.
Pasos sencillos pueden reducir de manera significativa el riesgo, como ralentizar y cuestionar la urgencia, llamar de nuevo a los puntos de contacto con números que ya conocen, verificar solicitudes de pago con información adicional de contacto, habilitar la autenticación multifactor, vigilar de manera cuidadosa cambios sutiles en las direcciones de correo electrónico, mantener el software actualizado y reportar actividades sospechosas a las autoridades. Cada informe ayuda a desmantelar redes como RedVDS y nos acerca a detener el cibercrimen a gran escala.
Continuar con un esfuerzo colectivo para combatir el cibercrimen
Esta acción contra RedVDS se basa en los esfuerzos continuos de Microsoft para desarticular infraestructuras de fraude y estafas mediante acciones legales y técnicas, colaboración con las fuerzas del orden y participación en iniciativas globales como la National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) y la Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA). Esto marca la 35ª acción civil dirigida contra la infraestructura de ciberdelincuencia por parte de la Unidad de Delitos Digitales de Microsoft, lo que subraya una estrategia sostenida para ir más allá de las eliminaciones individuales y desmantelar los servicios de los que dependen los delincuentes para operar y escalar.
A medida que servicios como RedVDS surgen, Microsoft continuará con la colaboración con socios de diferentes sectores y fronteras para identificar y desestabilizar la infraestructura detrás del fraude habilitado por ciberseguridad, para dificultar que los delincuentes obtengan beneficios y facilitar la seguridad de personas y organizaciones en línea.
