AWS re:Inforce is AWS' major security focused event. The 2021 edition was entirely virtual and the shortened program focused on five main areas. Across those sessions and in the keynote, the team was painting a bigger picture.

They were showing—again—how AWS treats security internally. It's a fascinating look, not at the technical aspects of security, but at how a security practice should be setup organizationally and the tenets that drive it.

This is not only how cloud security practices should be setup, but ALL security practices.
