Accelerate your Migration to Amazon Web Services

When migrating endpoint security controls to protect their cloud workloads, organizations must first consider their own security, operational and business needs. Next, they should assess their requirements against the solutions already in use in-house against the in-cloud security solutions they’re considering. Ultimately, these requirements should help organizations come to a decision on whether to migrate their existing security to the cloud, or use cloud-provided tools to protect their cloud endpoints.

SANS instructor David Hazar, AWS Solutions Architect Manager David Aiken, and Optiv Cloud Security Practice Leader Joe Vadakkan will release guidelines for determining your cloud endpoint security controls and selecting solutions through the AWS Marketplace.

Attendees will learn:

- How cloud design affects endpoint security
- Needs and capabilities associated with endpoint security platforms in the cloud (such as automation, behavioral detection and blocking, and threat hunting capabilities)
- Specific focus on cloud-based endpoint detection and response (EDR)
- Solution guidance and evaluation considerations for endpoint security platforms, including real-world success observations
- Key questions for potential vendors to determine which endpoint security platform(s) are best-suited for integration and implementation in your AWS environment

Join this webinar and gain practical knowledge on how to evaluate and select an effective endpoint security platform for the cloud. Don’t miss this opportunity to improve your endpoint security strategy with industry-leading guidance from SANS, Optiv and AWS Marketplace.

In this new webinar, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and global cloud training experts, A Cloud Guru, have collaborated to help you identify and tackle the important challenges IT practitioners face when migrating business apps to the cloud. This training-based session will show you how to benchmark your performance, identify challenging areas, prioritize use cases, and pair them with relevant AWS native services and software seller solutions in AWS Marketplace.

Attendees will receive:
- Expert guidance and training on principles for designing a high-performance cloud infrastructure
- A guide to AWS Well Architected Framework (WAF), and how it's helping IT professionals understand how to build secure, agile, high-performing cloud infrastructures

- How AWS Marketplace software seller solutions are helping customers today overcome challenges related to improving their IT operations in the cloud

As more organizations store sensitive data in the cloud, and as data protection regulations become more stringent, security personnel should consider developing a strategy to protect their assets in the AWS cloud. However, this poses many important questions, such as: How can I securely migrate data from on-premises storage volumes to AWS services, or from existing AWS services to new AWS services? What controls are needed? And what performance requirements must be met?

SANS analyst Dave Shackleford explores the controls that are critical to data security and how to scale on-premises data protection strategies to the cloud.

Attendees will learn:

- How to use data loss prevention, encryption, access controls, user behavior analytics, and data life cycle controls as integral parts of a data protection strategy
- Key steps in scaling data protection to the AWS cloud, and which AWS storage and database services can be used to establish data encryption capabilities
- Ways to minimize common risks from human error with a combination of AWS and third-party services, and how organizations are using both to secure data in AWS
