# 🛡️ Ninobyte AI Security & Governance Lab — AWS Edition The AI Security & Governance Lab — AWS Edition is an AWS-native, ticket-driven practice for cloud security, GRC, audit, and AI governance professionals. Instead of passive lessons, learners work realistic tickets against a governed AWS AI workload, gather evidence, analyze findings, recommend remediation, and produce portfolio-ready proof-pack artifacts. The emphasis is defensive and evidence-based throughout. ## Who it is for - Cloud security engineers - Technical GRC analysts - IT auditors - Security managers - AI governance professionals This lab assumes enough AWS familiarity to read basic service evidence, but it is designed to help security, audit, and governance professionals connect that evidence to decisions. ## 🧪 What learners practice - Mapping an AWS AI workload - Reviewing IAM and access boundaries - Inspecting CloudTrail and CloudWatch evidence - Evaluating S3 data exposure with Macie - Validating Bedrock Guardrails - Investigating suspicious model-invocation activity - Producing a proof pack and an executive AI risk memo ## Ticket-driven workflow flowchart LR A[Security Ticket] --> B[AWS Evidence] B --> C[Analysis] C --> D[Remediation Recommendation] D --> E[Proof-Pack Artifact] E --> F[Executive Communication] Every ticket moves from a realistic prompt to sanitized evidence, to analysis, to a recommendation, and finally to an artifact a reviewer or executive can act on. ## 🧾 Proof-pack model Learners build five categories of portfolio-safe artifacts: 1. AWS AI Architecture & Threat Model 2. IAM and Data Exposure Audit 3. Bedrock Guardrail Implementation Record 4. AI Security Incident Investigation Note 5. Executive AI Risk Memo See [`PROOF_PACK_OVERVIEW.md`](PROOF_PACK_OVERVIEW.md) for a high-level explanation. ## Why AWS-only We go deep on one cloud rather than skimming many. Production AI security work happens against concrete primitives — Bedrock, IAM, CloudTrail, CloudWatch, S3, Macie, and Guardrails — and durable skill comes from working those primitives directly, not from provider-agnostic theory. AWS-first depth makes the evidence real and the practice transferable. ## Defensive only ## For teams and reviewers - translating AWS evidence into audit-ready findings; - explaining AI workload risk to technical and executive stakeholders; - recognizing where IAM, data exposure, logging, and guardrails change the risk picture; - producing sanitized artifacts that show judgment, not just course completion.
