AWS Security Start-up Guide: Leave Your Network IDS at Home

In this paper, we’ll explore ways to better navigate and utilize IDS in AWS, including:

• What is network-based IDS good for and when should I be using it?
• Possible approaches to IDS in AWS (and pros/cons)
• Alternative approaches to IDS in AWS
• How to leverage threat detection strategies in AWS for PCI compliance
