AWS re:Inforce 2025 – Everything starts with security
Another incredible year at AWS re:Inforce, and the 2025 edition in Philadelphia did not disappoint.
Over the three days, I gained a deeper understanding of AWS security, reconnected with familiar faces who have become like family, and welcomed new professionals into the alumni circle.
Grateful for the hallway conversations, fireside sessions, and insights from AWS security leaders Mark Young & Chris Haggard — your guidance continues to shape the way we build securely
Highlights worth mentioning:
ACM for external servers — AWS Certificate Manager now supports exportable public SSL/TLS certificates for secure TLS traffic termination across AWS, hybrid, and multi-cloud workloads.
Security Hub — AWS Security Hub has been enhanced to transform security signals into actionable insights. The new enhancement provides comprehensive visibility across your cloud environment, including the ability to create Jira/ServiceNow tickets for identified findings while reducing the complexity of managing resource misconfiguration.
Beyond the sessions, it was great spending quality time with old friends Shammah Una, Adebayo BALOGUN, CISSP, FIP, Aminat Usman, Kudakwashe Manhondo, Blessing Idio, Charity Kemei, Sharanya Sisodia, and meeting brilliant new minds Shakirah Odedina, Kamorudeen Amuda,
Cole O'Shaughnessy from Chainguard, thank you so much for taking the time to connect - it was great meeting you
Lastly, we explored a bit of Philadelphia’s charm together. This wasn't the first time, and it certainly won't be the last. I'm always proud to be part of a community that's passionate about building securely and supporting each other.
