1. Direct Connect 安全概览
时间范围：00:00–00:15
总结 / Summary
中文
本节开启 Direct Connect（DX）安全主题，重点比较在不同 OSI 层对专线流量进行加密的方法。
English
This section introduces Direct Connect security and compares ways to encrypt dedicated-link traffic at different OSI layers.
Transcript
00:00 Alright, now in the next few lectures, let's talk about direct connect security.
00:06 And in here, we are going to primarily focus on encrypting the traffic as it goes through
00:11 your direct connect connection.
00:13 So now let's talk about that.
2. 加密 Direct Connect 流量的选项
时间范围：00:15–00:21
总结 / Summary
中文
Direct Connect（DX）可在应用层、网络层或数据链路层实施加密，选择取决于应用能力、合规要求和连接类型。
English
Direct Connect traffic can be encrypted at the application, network, or data-link layer, depending on application capabilities, compliance requirements, and connection type.
Transcript
00:15 Alright, so based on what you learned so far about the direct connect, one thing that you
3. DX 流量默认不加密
时间范围：00:21–00:49
总结 / Summary
中文
Direct Connect（DX）提供专用私有连接，但传输流量默认不加密；专用性（Dedicated Connectivity）与加密保护是两个不同概念。
English
Direct Connect provides dedicated private connectivity, but its traffic is not encrypted by default; dedicated transport and encryption are separate properties.
Transcript
00:21 probably know is the traffic that goes through your direct connect connection is not encrypted by default.
00:28 And that's for the reason because direct connect is a dedicated and a private network.
00:33 So generally, it is not required to encrypt your traffic, right?
00:38 However, if you talk about some of the industries like say financial services, or say federal
00:44 industries, they might have some security and compliance regulation, which requires
4. 安全与合规可能要求端到端加密
时间范围：00:49–01:11
总结 / Summary
中文
金融、政府等受监管行业可能要求从数据中心到 AWS 的端到端加密（End-to-End Encryption），即使底层使用专用 Direct Connect 连接。
English
Regulated industries such as financial services or government may require end-to-end encryption from the data center to AWS even when the underlying transport is Direct Connect.
Transcript
00:49 that end to end traffic from your data center to AWS should be encrypted.
00:56 And hence, we are discussing this here.
00:56 Alright, so what are the options to encrypt this traffic that goes through the direct connect?
01:04 Now, if you ask me, if the application supports, then you should probably use the TLS and HTTPS
5. 优先使用应用层 TLS/HTTPS
时间范围：01:11–01:41
总结 / Summary
中文
若应用支持，最简单的方案是在 OSI 第 4–7 层使用 TLS/HTTPS，让通信端点直接提供端到端加密，而不必依赖较低层的加密。
English
When applications support it, the simplest option is end-to-end TLS/HTTPS at OSI Layers 4–7, allowing the communicating hosts to provide encryption directly.
Transcript
01:11 encryption, which works at the application level.
01:14 And while doing so, then you don't really need to worry about the encryption at lower
01:18 level like layer three or layer two.
01:21 So this is a simplest option.
01:24 However, not all applications may support the application level encryption.
01:29 And that's where we need to now look at the encryption at lower layer of the OSI model.
01:34 So in there, there are typically two layers at which you can apply the encryption first at layer three.
6. 使用 Site-to-Site VPN 提供三层加密
时间范围：01:41–01:57
总结 / Summary
中文
当应用层加密不可用时，可在 Direct Connect（DX）上建立站点到站点 VPN（Site-to-Site VPN），使用 IPsec 在 OSI 第三层加密整个网络流量。
English
When application-layer encryption is unavailable, a Site-to-Site VPN can run over Direct Connect and use IPsec to encrypt network traffic at OSI Layer 3.
Transcript
01:41 And as you know, there we can use site to site VPN connection, which encrypts the entire traffic.
01:47 However, so far, we haven't talked about how to use the site to site VPN over the DX connection.
01:53 So we are going to discuss about that.
01:56 So that's a layer three encryption.
7. 使用 MACsec 提供二层加密
时间范围：01:57–02:47
总结 / Summary
中文
专用 Direct Connect 连接（Dedicated DX Connections）在受支持的位置可使用 MACsec，在客户或合作伙伴路由器与 AWS Direct Connect 路由器之间的物理交叉连接上提供二层加密（Layer 2 Encryption）。
English
At supported locations, dedicated Direct Connect connections can use MACsec for Layer 2 encryption across the physical cross-connect between the customer or partner router and the AWS DX router.
Transcript
01:57 Now, if you further go down, you can also apply the encryption at layer two, that is
02:03 at physical layer.
02:05 And AWS direct connect supports this at specific direct connect locations and for specific
02:12 direct connect connections.
02:14 And we are going to talk about that in the following lecture.
02:17 So from this slide, what I want you to understand is that the direct connect traffic by default
02:23 is not encrypted.
02:24 And then you can apply the encryption at different layers, where the simplest way to use the
02:30 application layer encryption.
02:32 But other than that, you can also encrypt the traffic at layer seven, and layer three and layer two.
02:39 Okay, with that, now in the following lectures, let's talk about the encryptions at these
02:45 different layers.
整讲总结 / Overall Summary
中文
Direct Connect（DX）流量默认不加密，因此应根据安全与合规要求选择适当层级的保护。应用支持时，TLS/HTTPS 是最简单的端到端方案；需要网络层统一加密时，可在 DX 上建立 Site-to-Site VPN；支持的 Dedicated Connections 还可使用 MACsec 保护客户或合作伙伴路由器到 AWS DX 路由器之间的二层物理链路。
English
Direct Connect traffic is unencrypted by default, so the encryption layer should be selected according to security and compliance needs. TLS/HTTPS is the simplest end-to-end option when applications support it; a Site-to-Site VPN provides uniform network-layer encryption over DX; and supported dedicated connections can use MACsec to protect the Layer 2 physical link between the customer or partner router and the AWS DX router.
