The story behind The Cloud Toolkit
I learned AWS by building.I learned troubleshootingwhen things broke.
I'm Jay Tillu, a Cloud Security Engineer. My journey moved from building software to securing AWS environments—and showed me that real cloud skill is not just knowing services. It is knowing what to check next.

About the creator
Building security that people can understand, trust and use.
My career started in software engineering before progressing into information security and AWS cloud security. That foundation helps me look at a system from both sides: how it is built, and how it can fail.
Today, my work spans AWS governance, secure access, monitoring, compliance readiness and incident investigation. The goal stays simple: reduce risk, improve visibility and make security practical for real teams.

The journey
From building systems to teaching how to troubleshoot them.
The Cloud Toolkit is the result of that progression—not a separate idea, but the next step in it.
01
Built software
Learning how applications, infrastructure and user experiences fit together.
02
Moved into security
Working across risk, compliance, endpoints and incident response.
03
Secured AWS environments
Focusing on governance, identity, monitoring and resilient cloud operations.
04
Created The Cloud Toolkit
Turning troubleshooting judgment into guided, realistic incident practice.
Why I built it
Knowing a service is not the same as handling an incident.
Most learning resources explain what IAM, ALB, CloudWatch or S3 does. Real incidents ask a harder question: what should I check next?
I created The Cloud Toolkit to practise that missing middle—the reasoning between an alert and a confident root cause.

Understand
Find root cause
Practice the decision process, not just the final answer.
