Course Description

This course delivers an end-to-end learning path for professionals who want to become certified as a CCSP (Certified Cloud Security Professional). First, we cover cloud architecture and design principles so you understand secure cloud service models and deployment types. Then, we move into hands-on modules for cloud data security, platform/infrastructure protection, and identity and access management. Consequently, learners will practice securing cloud workloads, designing compliance-ready solutions, and applying risk management processes.

In addition to exam-focused lessons, this course includes scenario-based labs and downloadable study guides to accelerate retention. Furthermore, our curriculum emphasizes active problem solving so you can defend production systems, conduct secure migrations, and advise stakeholders on governance and compliance.

What You’ll Learn

• Cloud architecture and secure design patterns for SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS.
• Cloud data lifecycle protection: encryption, tokenization, and masking.
• Identity and Access Management (IAM) best practices for federated systems.
• Cloud infrastructure and platform security controls and hardening.
• Security operations in the cloud: logging, monitoring, and incident response.
• Governance, risk management, and compliance frameworks applicable to cloud.
• Preparing and sitting for the (ISC)² CCSP exam — study strategies and sample questions.

Requirements

To get the most from this course, you should have:

• Basic networking and security knowledge (e.g., familiarity with firewalls, TCP/IP).
• Practical exposure to at least one cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud).
• Motivation to prepare for the CCSP certification; however, we include exam tips and practice tests to guide you.

Course Objectives & Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, you will be able to design secure cloud architectures, implement data protection across cloud services, manage identity and access in hybrid environments, and lead cloud security operations. Additionally, you will gain a tested study plan and exam-ready knowledge to pursue the (ISC)² CCSP certification confidently.
