Introduction
Understand foundational AWS security practices and apply basic controls to identities, networks and data. Learn to recognise common misconfigurations and gather useful security evidence.


This instructor-led course combines clear explanations with guided exercises and practical scenarios. Work through examples relevant to the subject, review alternative approaches and practise checking your results rather than relying on a demonstration alone.
You will develop a structured approach to implementation, troubleshooting and documentation. The trainer can adapt examples to the agreed learning needs and available training environment. Confirm the course duration, software or lab requirements, delivery arrangements and fees with London IT Training before booking.
This is professional development training. It does not automatically award a third-party vendor certification.
