More Than 6.5 Hours of Video Instruction

More than 6.5 hours of video instruction to help you learn the skills necessary to implement security in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud environment.

AWS Cloud Security LiveLessons explores Amazon Web Services (AWS), which offers a scalable cloud computing platform designed for high availability and reliability, providing the tools that allow you to run a wide range of applications. Helping to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA) of your systems and data is of the utmost importance. The AWS infrastructure has been architected to be one of the most flexible and secure cloud computing environments available today. It is designed to provide an extremely scalable, highly reliable platform that allows customers to deploy applications and data quickly and securely.

This course first covers the basics and rapid deployment capabilities of AWS to build a knowledge foundation for individuals who are brand new to cloud computing and AWS. You will explore the methods that AWS uses to secure their cloud services.
