35: Monitoring Security In AWS

How do you ensure the security of a third of America’s web
traffic?


By comprehensively understanding the different attack vectors
around the cloud at the API level, specifically AWS (Amazon web
services). And being prepared to react fast.


I recently got together with Will Bengtson, a security researcher
with over a decade of experience in cybersecurity who works at
Netflix.


“The biggest thing for me is that we have a lot of accounts, a
lot of instances, a lot of change in our environment. So
monitoring for us has to be just a continuous game,” Will said.


So since your cloud provider isn’t going to hold your hand on
this one, you need to know about these three tools Will uses.
