Description
|| UNOFFICIAL COURSE ||

This comprehensive course is designed to prepare you for theCertificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK)— a globally recognized certification that validates your expertise in cloud security. Whether you're an aspiring cloud professional, IT auditor, security architect, or compliance officer, this course equips you with the essential knowledge, frameworks, and strategies needed to thrive in today’s cloud-centric environments.

You will begin by understanding the core concepts of cloud computing, including service and deployment models, architectural frameworks, and the roles and responsibilities outlined byNISTand theCloud Security Alliance (CSA). You'll then explore how traditional governance, risk management, and compliance practices translate to the cloud, with a deep dive into legal issues, data jurisdiction, and electronic discovery challenges.

The course explains critical security design principles such as the shared responsibility model, identity and access management (IAM), and securing data across its lifecycle in the cloud. You’ll learn how to manage network and infrastructure security, design resilient systems, and implement effective security controls based on real-world scenarios.

As applications increasingly move to the cloud, you’ll gain insights into securing cloud-native development processes, containerization, virtualization, and how to integrate security into the software development lifecycle. We also cover modernSecurity-as-a-Service (SECaaS)models, such asCASB and DLP, and how to evaluate their effectiveness.

The course addresses real-world cloud threats, incident response, and disaster recovery planning to ensure business continuity. It also prepares you to implement security governance using industry standards like theCloud Controls Matrix (CCM),Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ), ISO/IEC standards, and ENISArecommendations.

You’ll also stay ahead of the curve by exploring advanced topics including serverless computing, AI-as-a-Service, edge computing, and multi-tenancy risks. Throughout the course, you’ll develop a strong understanding of how cloud operations are secured at scale, how to manage control planes, and how emerging technologies affect risk postures.

Whether you're aiming to pass theCCSK exam, transition into a cloud security role, or reinforce your understanding of cloud best practices, this course offers the structured content, practical insights, and exam-aligned material to get you there.

By the end of this program, you’ll be equipped not just to pass the CCSK, but to apply your knowledge confidently in real-world cloud environments.
