Course Description

Using cryptographic solutions helps prevent data tampering and exposure of sensitive data to unauthorized parties, ensuring data confidentiality and integrity. AWS supports the creation and management of encryption keys and digital security certificates. In this course, discover how cryptography can provide data integrity and confidentiality. Then examine the public key infrastructure (PKI) hierarchy and how certificates can be used to secure AWS services. Next, work with AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to manage encryption keys and AWS Certificate Manager to create a private certificate authority (CA) and issue PKI certificates. Finally, practice renewing certificates, enabling HTTPS, and encrypting an Elastic Block Store (EBS) volume. This course can be used to prepare for exam SOA-C02, AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate.
