Secure Your Online Business with Amazon CloudFront, WAF & Shield 🔒
In today's digital world, securing your online presence is crucial. Join Madhu as he explores how Amazon CloudFront, AWS WAF, and AWS Shield work together to protect your website and customers from cyber threats like account takeovers and DDoS attacks.

Imagine running an online shop where customers place orders and log in with their credentials. A bad actor could attempt to hack user accounts by trying different credential combinations (account takeover), or overwhelm your site with bot traffic (DDoS attack), leading to compromise of customer data or website downtime.

By leveraging AWS services, you can implement a comprehensive security solution:
✅ Amazon CloudFront delivers your website content securely
✅ AWS WAF detects and blocks malicious login attempts and other threats based on customizable rules
✅ AWS Shield mitigates Layer 3 & Layer 7 DDoS attacks, with the Advanced tier offering auto-mitigation and proactive support

This architecture ensures malicious traffic is blocked at the CloudFront layer, protecting your AWS resources like S3 and Lambda from being overwhelmed. It safeguards customer data, prevents revenue loss from disruptions, and fosters customer loyalty.

Best of all, you can secure resources hosted outside AWS using these services. For large enterprises, AWS Firewall Manager centrally manages WAF and Shield rules across multiple AWS accounts.

Secure your online business and provide a safe experience for your customers with AWS CloudFront, WAF, and Shield. Watch now to learn more!
