The Cloud Security Foundation class provides students a comprehensive two-day review of cloud security fundamentals. The course begins with a discussion of a basic risk assessment framework and then reviews each of the security domains put forth by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) and recommendations from the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA). Each domain area is discussed and reviewed followed by recommendations and requirements for each.
This class is geared towards security professionals, but is also useful for anyone looking to expand their knowledge of cloud security including IT Managers and Business Managers tasked with deploying some or all of their IT services in the cloud. (We recommend attendees have at least a basic understanding of security fundamentals, such as firewalls, secure development, encryption, and identity management).
At course completion students should have a good understanding of the security issues and risks to consider when deploying IT services in the Cloud.
