AWS Operations Playbook
RCCE students will learn Amazon Web Services security architecture and operations including IAM policies, VPC security, Security Hub, GuardDuty, CloudTrail analysis, S3 bucket security, KMS encryption, and Lambda function security. RCCE students will learn to secure AWS workloads using native and third-party security controls, configure IAM least-privilege policies, design secure VPC architectures with security groups and NACLs, enable and analyze CloudTrail logs for security investigations, detect misconfigurations using AWS Config and Security Hub, respond to alerts from GuardDuty, and implement automated security remediation using Lambda and Step Functions. This operations-focused course delivers production-ready playbooks, checklists, and standard operating procedures. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn to build repeatable day-to-day operational workflows that ensure consistency and quality. Students receive templates and frameworks they can customize and deploy immediately in their security operations, reducing time to operational effectiveness.
