OST: Securely Authenticating, Authorizing, and Connecting Clients to AWS IoT Core Using AWS STS

Brian from OST shows us how to securely perform authentication and authorization when connecting clients to an MQTT broker within the AWS IoT Core service. Brian walks through dynamically building IAM policies based on relationships stored in DynamoDB, generating corresponding credentials using the AWS Security Token Service (STS), and ultimately, building a signed WebSocket URL to return to the client, where it is used to establish a secure connection to the IoT Core MQTT broker.
