Securing the Cloud: Tame the Chaos of Cloud Misconfigurations

If this year has taught us anything, it’s that cloud security isn’t just an infrastructure problem. It’s a human one.

Organizations are rapidly migrating to multi-cloud environments, but security teams are still playing catch-up with IAM complexity, policy drift, and configuration debt. That’s why we’re offering two new courses designed to tackle the problem head-on:

• COD 252 – Securing Google Platform Applications and Data
• DES 220 – Secure AWS CloudFormation Configuration

These courses go beyond checklists. They’re built for real-world application where developers, architects, and DevSecOps pros need to balance speed with security, and do more than just check a compliance box.

Learners will explore how to:

• Apply IAM and policy best practices across GCP and AWS.
• Protect secrets, keys, and sensitive data in dynamic environments.
• Validate and monitor configurations using tools such as CloudTrail, KMS, and GCP’s Resource Manager.
• Map their work to frameworks such as NIST 800-53 and the CSA Cloud Controls Matrix.

The truth is that most cloud breaches come down to one word, “Misconfiguration,” and our goal is to make sure your team never has to learn that lesson the hard way.

These courses are designed for cloud engineers, security architects, and DevSecOps professionals who want to build and secure at the same pace. Cloud-native is here to stay, and it’s time to make secure-by-default a reality.
