What you'll learn: - Understand foundational cloud security concepts, compliance frameworks, and the shared responsibility model - Configure secure AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies and temporary access credentials - Implement zero-trust network architectures using virtual private clouds and security groups - Protect data at rest and in transit using modern encryption keys and secure storage classes like Glacier - Monitor and audit system access to identify and remediate potential security vulnerabilities The training begins with essential security definitions and core AWS compliance standards. You will then progress through step-by-step written guides covering identity management, network isolation, and data protection strategies.
