Description
In today's digital landscape, organizations are rapidly migrating to cloud platforms, but with that comes new and evolving security challenges. Cloud Security for IT Professionals is designed to equip IT professionals, students, and career changers with the essential knowledge and skills to secure cloud environments effectively.This course offers a practical, vendor-neutral approach while also referencing leading platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. You will learn the core principles of cloud security, including identity and access management (IAM), data protection, network security, application security, threat detection, logging and monitoring, and the shared responsibility model.What Will You Learn?Understand key cloud security concepts and the shared responsibility modelConfigure access control using IAM, RBAC, and ABACSecuring network traffic through virtual private cloud (VPC)Apply encryption techniques and secure sensitive dataImplement logging, monitoring, and threat detection strategiesIdentify common cloud security threats and how to mitigate themExplore tools and services across AWSAlign cloud security practices with compliance and audit requirementsWho Should Enroll:IT auditors, compliance analysts, and GRC specialistsDevelopers and engineers responsible for securing cloud deploymentsAnyone preparing for cloud or security certifications (e.g., CCSP, AWS Security Specialty)By the end of this course, you'll have a solid foundation to confidently secure cloud environments and understand the risks and responsibilities involved. Whether you're starting a new role or enhancing your current skill set, this course will give you the clarity and confidence to work securely in the cloud.
