#007: From Detection to Containment: Engineering Runtime Security Workflows on AWS


Listen Later

In this episode, we take a deep, technical dive into how modern AWS environments can move beyond detection into fully engineered, automated containment.

Using a real-world runtime scenario, the episode walks through how Amazon GuardDuty findings are ingested via Amazon EventBridge, enriched with Kubernetes and IAM context, and orchestrated through AWS Step Functions for deterministic response. It covers evidence preservation using Amazon S3 with AWS Key Management Service, controlled quarantine strategies across EKS and EC2, and identity containment using IAM boundaries and IRSA.

This is a hands-on blueprint for building cloud-native runtime security workflows—where detection, response, and auditability operate as a single, resilient system.

Ideal for CISOs, cloud architects, and security engineers looking to reduce blast radius, improve response time, and operationalize security at scale in AWS.
