Overview

Master Cloud Security Skills with the Certified Cloud Security Engineer (CCSE) Certification - A unique blend of vendor-neutral and vendor-specific cloud security concepts.
EC-Council’s Certified Cloud Security Engineer (CCSE) course is curated by cloud security professionals in association with renowned subject matter experts to deliver a mix of vendor-neutral and vendor-specific cloud security concepts. The vendor-neutral concepts focus on cloud security practices, technologies, frameworks, and principles. In contrast, the vendor-specific materials deliver the practical skills that are needed to configure specific platforms, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This offers candidates a well-balanced mix of theoretical and practical skills. In addition, advanced topics also cover modules on securing the cloud infrastructure by implementing regulations and standards to maintain security. EC-Council’s cloud security course is mapped to the real-time job roles and responsibilities of cloud security professionals and is ideal for beginners as well as experienced cybersecurity professionals.

With CCSE, candidates learn:

  • Plan, implement, and execute cloud platform security for an organization.
  • Securely access cloud resources through identity and access management (IAM).
  • Evaluate and control organizational cloud network architecture by integrating various security controls the service provider offers.
  • Evaluate cloud storage techniques and threats on data stored in the cloud and understand how to protect cloud data from attacks.
  • Implement and manage cloud security on various cloud platforms, such as AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • Understand the shared responsibility model of the service provider.
  • Evaluate various cloud security standards, compliance programs, and features offered by AWS, Azure, and GCP, and perform cloud computing security audits.
  • Implement various threat detection and response services provided by Azure, AWS, and GCP to identify threats to an organization’s cloud services.
  • Evaluate and mitigate security risks, threats, and vulnerabilities in a cloud platform.
  • Integrate best practices to secure cloud infrastructure components (network, storage and virtualization, and management).
  • Secure organizational cloud applications by understanding the secure software development lifecycle of cloud applications and by implementing additional security controls to enhance the security of hosted cloud applications.
  • Design and implement a GRC framework, a cloud incident response plan, and a business continuity plan for cloud services.
  • Utilize the security services and tools provided in Azure, AWS, and GCP to secure the organizational cloud environment.
  • Understand the legal implications associated with cloud computing to protect organizations.
  • Implement operational controls and standards to build, operate, manage, and maintain the cloud infrastructure.
