Why study this course

Gain core knowledge and experience to successfully secure the cloud and prepare for the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP®) certification.

ISC2 and the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) developed the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) credential to ensure that cloud security professionals have the required knowledge, skills, and abilities in cloud security design, implementation, architecture, operations, controls, and compliance with regulatory frameworks. A CCSP applies information security expertise to a cloud computing environment and demonstrates competence in cloud security architecture, design, operations, and service orchestration.

This professional competence is measured against a globally recognised body of knowledge. The ISC2 CCSP is a standalone credential that complements and builds upon existing credentials and educational programs, including ISC2’s Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP®).

Please note: The exam is not included in the course fee but can be purchased separately. Please contact us for a quote.
