AWS serverless architecture components such as Amazon S3, Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, CloudWatch Logs, DynamoDB, Amazon Kinesis, and Lambda can be tightly constrained in their operation. However, it may still be possible to use some of them to propagate payloads that could be used to exploit vulnerabilities in some consuming endpoints or user-generated code. This session explores techniques for enhancing the security of these services, from assessing and tightening permissions in IAM to integrating tools and mechanisms for inline and out-of-band payload analysis that are more typically applied to traditional server-based architectures.
