The AWS Shared Responsibility Model

Learn which security duties belong to AWS and which belong to you.

Splitting the Duties

The Shared Responsibility Model draws a clear line: AWS secures the cloud itself, and you secure what you put in the cloud. Learn this before anything else.

Security OF the Cloud

AWS handles security OF the cloud: data centers, hardware, networking, and the virtualization layer. You never patch a hypervisor or guard a building door.
