This lab will guide you through designing an effective incident response plan using AWS services. You will create an automated response system to detect and respond to security threats in real-time using AWS Security Hub, Amazon GuardDuty, and AWS Lambda. The lab focuses on setting up triggered alerts, isolating compromised resources, and implementing a credential rotation strategy. You'll also explore logs to validate security events and ensure forensic data is securely captured using Amazon S3. By the end of this lab, you'll have hands-on experience with AWS services critical to handling security incidents, solidifying your understanding of automated responses, and learning to implement security measures proactively. Understanding key incident response concepts and mechanisms on AWS is essential for passing security specialty certification exams. This lab will ensure you gain practical skills in using AWS tools to achieve a seamless threat detection and response strategy aligned with industry best practices. Moreover, you'll define compliance rules with AWS Config to maintain a high-security posture, ensuring your cloud architecture meets stringent industry standards. This lab will prepare you to face real-world security challenges and respond promptly to threats, safeguarding your organization’s cloud infrastructure.
