As businesses shift critical workloads to the cloud, misconfigured storage buckets and identity policies have become a top breach cause. This course builds practical skills for securing AWS and Azure environments: locking down identity and access, encrypting data in transit and at rest, and setting up continuous monitoring so misconfigurations get caught before attackers find them.
What You Will Learn
- Configure IAM policies following least-privilege principles
- Secure storage, networking, and compute resources on AWS and Azure
- Set up continuous monitoring with CloudTrail, GuardDuty, and Sentinel
- Automate security checks with infrastructure-as-code
- Respond to and contain a simulated cloud breach
