Cloud Audit Best Practices: AWS Security Mini-Ebook (200+ pages)
Checklists for 5 AWS Services in the Security category (IAM, CloudTrail, KMS, Cognito, Guard Duty) to help you develop an audit of Best Practices for basic security services listed below.
BONUS 1: We have included General AWS Security Best Practices in the beginning of the guide which covers 7 key general categories of tips for Security on AWS.
BONUS 2: Included is a Compliance checklist to make sure you are on top of Compliance and Organizational requirements.
We call this a "mini-ebook" because it includes the 5 AWS Security services which are in the Cloud Audit Best Practices: 21 Essential AWS Services guide, and it is 200+ pages, instead of the 800+ pages of that guide. It is the Security portion of that guide, however there is an extra General Security section in this book as well as a bonus (which is not in the Essentials guide).
This book is priced lower and more affordable than the full guides. For those primarily concentrating on Security audits, this may be preferable for their needs, at a lower price point.
