Cybersecurity Skills
for Cloud Professionals.
As organizations shift more and more operations to the cloud, new risks have emerged. Cloud computing professionals need to understand the foundational cybersecurity concepts that can be applied to mitigate risk.
Cybersecurity Training for Cloud Professionals
As more organizations shift operations to the cloud, business and security leaders are faced with mitigating new types of risk that come with an expansive and complex digital ecosystem on top of their existing IT infrastructure. While cloud service providers (CSPs) typically contain standard security controls, organizations should not rely on CSPs alone in keeping their cloud services secure. From design, to implementation and daily management, embedding standard cybersecurity measures into each stage requires a baseline understanding of security concepts that is imperative for cloud computing professionals.
