Jam Day: Security Engineering on AWS
Course Code: AW-JSEC
AWS Jam is a scenario-based, team-centred event where participants gain practical experience with a wide range of AWS services. AWS Jam scenarios relate to use cases, domains, and services covered in the classroom training course. The event is gamified with teams competing against each other by scoring points for completing specific challenges. Challenges have varying degrees of difficulty and are therefore worth differing amounts of points. A live leaderboard provides updates on scores and progress throughout the event. Clues and guidance can be provided to help teams move through challenges, but cost points.
This course is intended for Security engineers, Security architects, Cloud architects, and Cloud operators who have completed the Security Engineering on AWS training.
