What you'll learn

Security incidents in the cloud can be difficult to investigate without the right tools and processes in place. In this course, Amazon Security Hub Correlation and Forensic Analysis, you’ll gain the ability to perform effective forensic investigations using native AWS security services.

First, you’ll explore how to identify and interpret critical GuardDuty findings, such as IAM credential compromises. Next, you’ll discover how to correlate those findings with AWS Config rule violations using Security Hub to gain deeper context. Finally, you’ll learn how to reconstruct attacker activity using CloudTrail and CloudWatch Logs Insights, and build dashboards for real-time threat monitoring.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of AWS threat detection and analysis needed to investigate security incidents, visualize key metrics, and prepare for more advanced analytics using Amazon Security Lake.
