From Journey to Practice: DevSecOps on AWS

SECURITY IS NOT THE LAST STEP. IT IS PART OF EVERY DECISION, FROM THE FIRST COMMIT TO OPERATIONS.

This course book guides beginners (and anyone who wants to organize what they already know) through 31 chapters that connect development, pipelines, cloud, and operations, with a focus on AWS.

You will learn to: turn risks into testable requirements; protect Git, dependencies, and CI/CD pipelines; apply least privilege, secrets management, and temporary credentials; review infrastructure as code and containers; build a secure capstone project on AWS; and automate workflows carefully (n8n).

More than 100 diagrams, exercises with answer keys in every chapter, and labs in your own environment, with cost warnings and cleanup steps.

Includes notes for international readers comparing Brazil's LGPD with GDPR and CCPA.
