Client-Side Encryption with Customer Provided Keys (CSE-C)
Please note that this course has been retired and replaced with a new course, Using Encryption to Protect Your Data on Amazon S3.
We have all seen in the media numerous occurrences whereby large international organizations have had their data exposed and leaked that had been stored on S3. Any sensitive data stored in the cloud MUST be encrypted, and when storing your data on S3 there are multiple different options that you can choose from to enable you to protect your data with encryption. To help you understand these mechanisms, this course will guide you through the process of how each of them works, not just from an encryption perspective but also at a decryption level. This will allow you to make the right choice when it comes to selecting the most appropriate method of encryption to align with your own internal security strategy.
Applying encryption is a simple task and it can protect you and your customers from data exposure should a malicious user gain access to your S3 buckets.
