AWS Security Essentials
This 1-day course is an introduction to security in the cloud and on AWS.
The AWS Security Essentials course is designed to teach the basic security concepts related to Amazon Web Services (AWS). It covers important topics such as AWS access control, data encryption methods, and securing network access to your AWS infrastructure. The course is based on the AWS Shared Responsibility Model, which outlines your security responsibilities in the AWS Cloud and highlights the security services available to you. You will learn how these services can help meet your organization’s security needs.
This fundamental course lasts one day and includes presentations along with hands-on labs.
By the end of the course, you will be able to identify the security benefits and responsibilities of using AWS, describe its access control and management features, explain methods for encrypting data both at rest and in transit, secure network access to your AWS resources and determine which AWS services are suitable for monitoring and incident response.
The course is aimed at IT security professionals interested in cloud security practices and those with little to no experience with AWS. To get the most out of this course, it is recommended that participants have a basic understanding of IT security practices, infrastructure concepts, and familiarity with cloud computing.
