AWS Cloud Security
This lesson is part of AWS · All levels
Summary
Cloud security is built on three pillars: confidentiality, integrity, and availability known as the CIA triad. AWS implements defense in depth so that failure of one layer of defense does not directly open up the entire system. The security areas include identity and access, infrastructure protection, data protection, and incident detection and response.
Key points
- The CIA triad: confidentiality, integrity, availability
- Defense in depth: multiple layers of defense that overlap each other
- Identity and access become the first layer of defense.
- Encryption protects data when stored and when sent
- Threat monitoring and detection is ongoing
