Building Trust in AWS: AI Governance & IAM Best Practice

Join us for a powerful double session exploring trust, control, and innovation in AWS!

As AI and generative AI technologies become more pervasive, it is crucial that we develop and deploy these powerful tools in a responsible and trustworthy manner.

In the first session, Koushik Das from AWS will explore the key dimensions of responsible AI and how AWS is leading the way in providing the tools, resources, and expertise to help organizations transform responsible AI from theory into practice.

Then we have TJ Wenger, Cloud Ops leader from sonraisecurity talk about how to Interact with AWS IAM .
It is a -"necessary evil" for many - but for him, its is his weapon to rein in costs and reduce risk.

Using the new Resource Control Policies (RCPs) and Service Control Policies (SCPs) with some automated management, he’s able to 'turn off' certain services and regions at any level in his Organization hierarchy. He’s granting permissions back through Slack with a 'Permissions on Demand' system. He hit his cost savings goals and central control on IAM risk - and his developers aren’t complaining about access.

Join TJ and learn about:

• His 2024 utilization efficiency initiative
• The intersection of IAM, security, and cloud spend
• Getting closer to the holy grail of a complete, accurate cloud inventory
• Specific security tools and AWS infrastructure and how to use it, like: RCPs, SCPs, AWS Organizations, and 3rd party tooling
