Meetup #14 : Lessons Learned Securing AWS Workloads at Scale

How do attackers target AWS workloads?

What security controls really matter, what should you prioritize and what can be left for later?

Using his experience delivering penetration testing and other offensive security assessments to a wide range of organizations, Nick Jones will talk through the most common attack scenarios in cloud-native environments, and the most critical security controls to have in place. Attendees will come away with a clearer understanding of the real-world security threats to their AWS workloads, and actionable advice on what to prioritize to make sure their data and applications remain secure.
