Guarantee your safety in the cloud!

Global Knowledge

The cloud is a place of endless possibilities. It’s flexible, easy to manage, and pay-per-use. With all this comfort it seems almost too good to be true. What about safety? You want to make sure your data and apps are protected with security in mind. It might be easier said than done: how do you design the cloud as securely as possible?

Risks

First of all you have to take all the risks into account. Cloud is vulnerable to typical security-risks such as unauthorised access and systems that haven’t been configured accordingly. But there is also unique risk attached to the use of virtualization, multitenancy and orchestration. Oh and did you think about regulations? There are laws covering the collection, exchange, adaption and storage of data.

What happens next?

Once you’ve taken the risks into account it’s time for action. With the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) certification for example. This is the world-wide renowned certification for cloud security professionals. Global Knowledge supplies a four day training course for this certification. We will teach you what the security risks are, how to select the right security controls, how to audit a cloud-environment and which regulations you have to take into account. In this training we pay special attention to:

• Architectural Concepts & Design Requirements

• Cloud Data Security • Cloud Platform & Infrastructure Security

• Cloud Application Security

• Operations

• Legal & Compliance

We recommend this training to architects and security officers that have to select and design cloud-solutions. You can find out more about this course here.
