Network security is achieved through a number of solutions. Through this course, you'll examine various aspects of AWS network security. Begin by exploring how packet filtering firewalls allow or deny traffic based on the contents of packet headers (and not payload). You'll then recognize how forward proxies fetch internet content for users while reverse proxies hide the true identity of services accessed through the proxy device. Moving on, you'll also compare port and network address translation, manage security groups and network ACLs, and work with the AWS Network Firewall, AWS Firewall Manager, and the AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF). Once you have finished this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge to manage network security within the AWS cloud by implementing the appropriate network security measure. You'll also be a step further in preparing for the AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate exam, SOA-C02.
