This AWS training will cover many aspects of security in AWS, mostly focused on Identity and Access Management (IAM). The first session provides a basic introduction to IAM concepts and best practices. The second session covers intermediate and advanced IAM topics. Both sessions include hands-on exercises and coverage of Cornell-specific security configurations and tools. Both sessions are jointly presented by AWS and Cornell staff. Sessions are remotely presented over about 4 hours, including breaks and hands-on exercises.
