Abstract

Security is a top priority at Amazon Web Services. As we have a shared responsibility model with customers, AWS manages the components from the operating system down to the physical security of the facilities; AWS customers are responsible for building secure applications on top of it. In this talk I will describe tools that support our customers in securing their applications, and tools that we use to secure the infrastructure. Under the hood, these tools use formal methods to provide guarantees to our customers.
