Simplifying Infrastructure Setup and Security Automation Using Terraform and AWS Systems Manager

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has become a cornerstone for efficient and consistent infrastructure management in today’s fast-paced cloud environment. By defining your infrastructure in code, you can automate deployments, reduce errors, and enhance collaboration across teams. However, automation doesn’t stop at deploying infrastructure; it extends to security management. By combining Terraform with AWS Systems Manager, you can automate the deployment of your EC2 instances and ensure they are secured with the necessary agents immediately.

This podcast will walk you through automating the deployment of an EC2 instance, IAM role, and SNS topic using Terraform. We’ll then leverage AWS Systems Manager to automatically install security agents on the deployed EC2 instances, ensuring a streamlined and secure environment.
