Create Secure IAM Roles and S3 Buckets
In this hands-on lab, you'll explore S3 bucket access control and how it interacts with IAM roles when using Amazon Transcribe. You’ll learn to implement and test bucket policies to explicitly deny or allow access, gaining practical experience in controlling data access using AWS-native tools. These skills are essential for enforcing least-privilege access, preventing unauthorized data exposure, and applying real-world cloud security best practices.
