This hands-on lab will guide you through a number of examples of how you could use the AWS Console and Command Line Interface (CLI) for responding to a security incident. It is a best practice to be prepared for an incident, and have appropriate detective controls enabled. You can find more best practices by reading the Security Pillar of the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
The skills you learn will help you secure your workloads in alignment with the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
