SYNOPSIS

Migrating your IT infrastructure to the cloud changes the threat and vulnerability landscape and enables the use of a broad range of best practice security processes and tools. The presentation aims to enable the non-technical person to have a deeper understanding of cloud security and to know what questions to ask cloud providers, MSPs and professional services companies. Based on the AWS Well-Architected Framework security pillar the presentation covers the following topics:

• Setting the context for cloud security.

• The shared responsibility model.

• AWS well architected security, IAM, detective controls, infrastructure protection, data protection, incident management.

• Cloud vulnerabilities.

• Cloud vs on prem security, the approach.

• Why is cloud security different to on prem.
