Policy as Code with CloudFormation Guard

Learn how to implement policy-as-code using AWS CloudFormation Guard - an open-source tool that helps validate infrastructure templates against organizational policies. You'll install Guard, create a simple CloudFormation template defining an S3 bucket, and write Guard rules to enforce security standards like proper bucket naming conventions and versioning requirements. You'll then run Guard and see how it identifies non-compliant resources. You'll then correct the policy violations and verify compliance - demonstrating how policy-as-code can help catch configuration mistakes before deployment and ensure your infrastructure follows corporate governance standards.
