Heavy Lifting with Load Balancers: Security You Did Not See Coming

AWS Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) is one of the most widely used AWS services across companies. While it may appear to be a simple solution for basic use cases, is it truly so? In today's landscape, load balancers have evolved from the classic ELB that simply distributes network traffic to a robust service. This service can be susceptible to misconfiguration but also holds the potential to detect and mitigate attacks.

Join us for an insightful discussion where we unveil the comprehensive security blueprint for the three AWS ELB types: ALB, NLB, and GLB. We will dissect threat hunting based on ELB logs and outline key features that you must deploy for a secure organization. We will demonstrate key security differences between the three types of load balancers and display concrete TTPs to detect adversaries, like Man-in-the-Middle via ALB Manipulation and IMDS attack.
