AWS Security Checklist
20 Critical Checks Every Growing Team Must Fix
The Problem
Cloud security breaches cost SMBs an average of $2.98 million per incident. Yet 80% of incidents are caused by simple misconfigurations—not sophisticated attacks.
Most companies don't have dedicated AWS security teams. They rely on developers who are already stretched thin, or expensive consultants who disappear after the engagement.
The Solution
We distilled 500+ AWS security controls into the 20 checks that matter most for growing companies. Based on AWS Foundational Security Best Practices and real-world breach patterns.
