AWS Security Automation: Incident Response and Compliance

Managing security and compliance manually in a growing cloud environment is unsustainable and prone to human error. This text-based course teaches you how to leverage AWS automation tools to detect, respond to, and remediate security incidents in real time. You will transition from manual monitoring to building self-healing cloud architectures, establishing continuous compliance, and maintaining audit readiness across multiple AWS accounts. What you'll learn: Understand core security governance, incident response terminology, and AWS compliance frameworks; Configure AWS Config rules to continuously monitor and evaluate resource configurations; Build automated remediation workflows using EventBridge and Lambda functions; Apply least-privilege IAM policies to secure your automated response scripts; Integrate AWS Security Hub and Audit Manager to streamline compliance reporting; Design multi-account event routing to centralize security alerts and responses. The course begins with foundational security concepts and AWS architecture setups before guiding you through step-by-step written tutorials, configuration examples, and Lambda code snippets for real-world automation scenarios. This training is designed for cloud beginners, system administrators, and aspiring security engineers who want to learn automation without needing advanced programming experience.
