Secure Your Application with AWS ALB + SSL/TLS + ACM | Complete Hands-on
In this hands-on AWS tutorial, you'll learn how to secure your web application using *AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB)* with *SSL/TLS encryption**. We configure **HTTPS**, attach an **AWS Certificate Manager (ACM)* certificate, perform **SSL termination**, and route secure traffic to a Spring Boot application running on EC2.
This tutorial covers both the theory behind SSL/TLS and the practical implementation using the AWS Management Console.
