    Description
    Course includes test preparation for the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) or similar exam. Students learn how to evaluate cloud providers and perform risk assessments and reviews. The course examines different delivery models ranging from Software as a Service (SaaS) to Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and how each model represents an entirely separate set of security conditions. The course will also touch on architecture and infrastructure fundamentals for the clouds, including a wide range of topics such as patch and configuration management, virtualization security, application security, and change management. Policy, risk assessment, and governance within cloud environments will also be covered.
