Description
SOC in AWSis a hands-on, analyst-level course that shows you how real attacks unfold inside Amazon Web Services and how defenders actually catch them.

How to investigate suspicious activity in AWS step by step

How to connect weak signals across logs

How to move fromalert-driven SOC worktoproactive threat hunting

How to explain findings clearly during incidents and escalations
