This course will get you started on thinking about how security best practices should be reflected in serverless architectures. It covers some of the key Amazon Web Services (AWS) offerings that are available to help you monitor for issues and audit your serverless applications. In this course, you will learn about your responsibilities related to securing your applications. You will learn about the ways in which you can use AWS CloudTrail, Amazon CloudWatch, AWS Config, and AWS X-Ray to monitor and respond to anomalies and changes in your serverless architecture.
