My colleague Janna Pellegrino shared the guest post below to introduce you to the newest version of our AWS Security Fundamentals Course.

Jeff;


Information security is deeply important to our customers. AWS Security Fundamentals is a free, online course that introduces you to fundamental cloud computing and AWS security concepts, including AWS access control and management, governance, logging, and encryption methods. It also addresses security-related compliance protocols, risk management strategies, and procedures for auditing AWS security infrastructure.

We have significantly updated this course to help our customers. Updates include:

  • New content on AWS security services related to encryption, network security, access control and management, and reporting of user access to AWS services.
  • Updated information about the AWS Shared Responsibility Model.
  • Demos to teach you how to create encrypted root volumes, configure AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF), and create and run AWS Config Rules to evaluate your AWS environment for compliance.
  • More robust content around AWS compliance and assurance programs, and AWS services that help enforce governance, compliance, and risk management.
  • A short quiz to assess your knowledge on AWS security concepts and services.

This four-hour, self-paced course is aimed at IT business or security professionals interested in cloud security practices and AWS, as well as IT auditors, analysts, and regulators. It is also a recommended prerequisite for our 3-day Security Operations on AWS course.

You can learn about this course and others training resources at AWS Training.
