In the AWS Console, go search for the IoT Core service.
You can use the "MQTT test client" to check the MQTT messages received by the AWS IoT Core.
To browse your devices, go to "All devices".
To use CloudWatch, you must enable IoT Core Logs - you can find those in the Settings.
Are there any security considerations or access control policies i need to take into account when setting up monitoring with CloudWatch for AWS IOT?
You should enforce the access control policies using AWS IoT Core Policies. This way, you can define the actions allowed for connected devices.
Willl definitely check it out
But lastly can you explain how to use the MQTT test client to test MQTT messages received by the AWS lOT Core?
I described this topic in detail on my blog: https://www.thingrex.com/iot_thing_conn/
If you are good with nodejs you can use aws sdk and send publish and subscribe in a script.js without the gui https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-js
