Description

Cloud adoption has fundamentally changed how organizations secure their data, applications, and infrastructure. Cloud Security 101 (2025 Update) provides a structured, practical foundation for understanding how to secure modern cloud environments.

This updated version builds on the original 2023 release, with refreshed content, improved audio and video, and expanded tactical guidance for security practitioners and leaders.

While the course is designed to be taken start-to-finish, each section stands on its own, so learners can dive directly into the areas most relevant to their roles. Whether you’re a hands-on security engineer or a CISO shaping strategy, this course equips you with clear, actionable cloud security knowledge.

Who this course is for:

  • Security engineers, analysts, and architects working with or moving into cloud security

  • CISOs, security managers, and IT leaders building or maturing cloud programs

  • DevOps, infrastructure, and platform teams collaborating with security teams

  • Compliance and governance professionals responsible for securing cloud workloads

  • Anyone looking to build a strong, practical foundation in cloud security

How to Get the Most Out of Course

  • Start with the introductory module to get grounded in key terms and concepts

  • Work through modules sequentially to build layered understanding — or jump to the area that’s most relevant to your current role or challenge

  • Take notes on tool capabilities (e.g., CASB, CSPM, CNAPP) and how they might fit into your environment

  • Use the provided examples and frameworks to shape your own organization’s security strategy

  • Pair the course with your own cloud environment for maximum impact

  • Revisit the course as your organization’s cloud program matures — it’s built for repeatable reference
