Today’s business leaders know that it is critical to ensure the security of their environments, and the security present in traditional cloud networks is extended to workloads at the edge. This whitepaper provides security executives the foundations for implementing a defense in depth security strategy at the edge by addressing three areas of security at the edge:
AWS services at AWS edge locations
How those services and others can be used to implement the best practices outlined in the design principles of the AWS Well-Architected Framework Security Pillar
The security aspects of additional AWS edge services, which customers can use to help secure their edge environments or expand operations into new, previously unsupported environments
Together, these elements offer core principles for designing a security strategy at the edge, and demonstrate how AWS services can provide a secure environment extending from the core cloud to the edge of the AWS network and out to customer edge devices and endpoints.
