Descriptions
As businesses increasingly move to cloud platforms, securing data and systems in the cloud has become critical. Cloud Security involves safeguarding cloud-based assets from threats such as data breaches, misconfigurations, insider attacks, and unauthorized access. This includes implementing identity and access controls, encryption, monitoring, compliance enforcement, and security automation.
You’ll learn how to:
Understand shared responsibility models across cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)
Secure virtual machines, databases, and storage in the cloud
Configure access control, encryption, and firewalls
Detect and respond to cloud-specific threats using cloud-native tools
Apply industry compliance frameworks (like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR)
Whether you’re managing cloud infrastructure or auditing cloud security postures, mastering cloud security is essential to building a robust defense in modern IT environments.
