Another great place to find AWS use cases - https://research.splunk.com/ , search AWS you will find already curated security detection details!

Perhaps you could start with this list to get an understanding! - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/AddOns/released/AWS/DataTypes

If you are not going to use AWS add-on for ingestion of logs the will be different.
