Almost 4 Hours of Video Instruction
 
Create a continuous security posture by defining all your AWS security and compliance as code, and run in a continuous delivery workflow with every change using services and tools such as AWS CloudFormation, AWS CodePipeline, and many others.

Overview
 
In this course, you will learn how to use AWS services, which provide the ability to create an end-to-end continuous security solution. These services include AWS CloudFormation, AWS CodePipeline, Amazon EventBridge, AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions, AWS Organizations, AWS Security Hub, Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Config Rules, Amazon Inspector, AWS Secrets Manager, Amazon VPC, Amazon Macie, and AWS Audit Manager--among many others. You will learn how to use a combination of these services to apply key design principles for security and build continuous security solutions within your software systems. Throughout the course, you will see working examples of how to automate security using AWS services.
