When delivering web applications through Amazon CloudFront, a common objective is to prevent viewer requests from directly accessing origin resources. Preventing viewer requests from bypassing CloudFront helps ensure all traffic is handled by global edge locations and is processed according to your AWS WAF rule set prior to being forwarded to your origin endpoint.

A permissions boundary is an AWS IAM feature that makes it easier to delegate permissions management to trusted employees. These employees can now configure IAM permissions to help scale permissions management and move workloads to AWS faster.

In this workshop, you will use AWS WAF, Amazon Inspector, and AWS Systems Manager to build an effective set of controls around your AWS workloads. Learn to use AWS WAF to mitigate common attack vectors against web applications such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting.
