Live Online Cloud Security Fundamentals Training

Many cloud breaches stem from misconfigured storage, exposed keys and over-privileged accounts rather than flaws in the platforms themselves. The week opens with the shared responsibility model across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud and the threats that target cloud workloads. Identity sessions cover least privilege, roles, multi-factor authentication, federation and managing access keys safely. You then configure network security controls including security groups, firewalls, private endpoints and segmentation of workloads into separate zones.

Data protection sessions explain encryption at rest and in transit, key management services and secrets handling. The final day focuses on detecting misconfigurations with posture management tools, centralised logging, monitoring and alerting, and on responding to incidents in cloud environments. Exercises review insecure sample configurations and correct them against benchmarks such as the CIS controls. Cloud engineers, system administrators, security analysts, developers and IT auditors will find it a sound grounding. Afterwards you can secure a cloud account with layered controls and spot the risky settings that attackers look for first.
