Overview

Organizations are moving their data and their infrastructure to the cloud. With this change, new challenges are coming. Security is absolutely not handled in the same way in the cloud as it has always been on-premise. 

In this course, you will learn how to verify that necessary controls have been put in place in the AWS cloud. You will learn to assess security not only on basic AWS resources like EC2 or S3 but also on a large variety of AWS services that are often overlooked during a pentest—from serverless infrastructure to automated deployment pipelines.  

This course is the first of a series of two. You will find the continuation in the course named “Advanced AWS Pentesting.” 

By the end of this course, you will be able to identify possible vulnerable areas efficiently and secure your AWS cloud environment.
