Individual skill
securing-serverless-functions
Hardens serverless compute platforms (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, Google Cloud Functions): least-privilege IAM roles, dependency vulnerability scanning, secrets management integration, input validation, function URL authentication, and runtime monitoring. Use when deploying serverless functions with sensitive access, auditing for overly permissive roles, or adding functions to a DevSecOps pipeline.

# Securing Serverless Functions
## When to Use
- When deploying Lambda functions or Azure Functions with access to sensitive data or cloud APIs
- When auditing existing serverless workloads for overly permissive IAM roles
- When integrating serverless functions into a DevSecOps pipeline with automated security scanning
- When hardcoded secrets or vulnerable dependencies are discovered in function code
- When establishing runtime monitoring for serverless workloads to detect injection or credential theft
**Do not use** for container-based compute security (see securing-kubernetes-on-cloud), for API Gateway configuration (see implementing-cloud-waf-rules), or for serverless architecture design decisions.
