The importance of AWS security
Amazon Web Services, also commonly referred to as AWS, is a cloud computing platform provided by Amazon featuring a mixture of infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and packaged-software-as-a-service (SaaS) offerings.
Known as a leader in its ability to execute, Amazon Web Services is the most popular cloud service provider in the world offering hundreds of services. AWS offers reliable and inexpensive cloud computing services with increased flexibility and scalability.
With a large number of businesses adopting cloud technologies like AWS, businesses must understand the security implications of moving to the cloud. By understanding how attackers would operate in these environments, businesses will be able to proactively ensure environments are secure and that their applications and data are protected.
Train and upskill your team
Our AWS cloud practitioner training gives your team practical, hands-on experience with simulated attack scenarios, allowing your team to work across scenarios in various AWS services and apply this learning to the real world.
Each individual within your team will get full individual access to sandboxed accounts with console and API access in a totally safe environment managed by us. Using individual accounts where environments are generated on demand, your team can first experience what an attacker would be doing across an AWS environment and how to mitigate this, without the risk of exposing your own AWS instance.
The level of detail we explore in the AWS training course reflects the tools and real-world scenarios of Cloud Practitioners and is, therefore, suitable for any role that overlaps with Cloud technology, including:
- Cloud Engineers
- DevOps and DevSecOps
- Security Engineers
- Penetration Testers
What your team will learn
Your team will gain a strong understanding of how common AWS services work. With the growing importance of remaining secure, the AWS training comprises realistic scenarios to demonstrate how attackers would compromise these services to attain hands-on access. Some common scenarios will include:
- Compromising EC2 instances and exfiltrating data using EC2 and VPC services
- Reducing the privileges of an overly permissive IAM policy
- Abusing Lambda Authorizers on API gateways
- Enumerating IAM users and roles to escalate privileges
The Amazon Web Services training will also provide an actionable understanding of mitigations for the aforementioned attacks and how your team can stay prepared.
AWS training modules
Our AWS training consists of five modules that will cover common security weaknesses and mitigations to help your team secure these services.
