In this chapter, we reviewed some of the strategies you can follow for achieving security in your cloud application. We emphasized the best practices of implementing security using AWS services. We followed this up with several sections on setting up security in our sample application.

In the next chapter, we will shift our focus to production deployments, go-live planning, and operations. We will also discuss data backup and restore, and application monitoring and troubleshooting. We will also include a hands-on section that walks you through these processes for our sample application.
