Develop a governance framework across multi-cloud environments using directives, policies, and standards. Learn architecture with NIST CSF 2.0, Azure and AWS operations, and posture management with Defender and Arc.
Discover the course contents on cloud security governance and learn why and how to approach it, with a focus on communicating benefits to executive management to secure support and funding.
Secure multi-cloud architectures apply layered defense and zero trust, ensuring access security and information security across providers. Centralize policy and automate security with secure by design and GDPR-aware data protection.
Develop a holistic multi-cloud security architecture based on standards and apply the NIST CSF framework to reduce risk in a cloud environment, and build a security governance framework.
Learn how to onboard an AWS Windows Server to Azure Arc using the connected machine agent, register required resource providers, and run the onboarding script.
Define multi-cloud security policies with a defense-in-depth governance framework, using a baseline and plan-do-check-act cycle for HIPAA, NIST, and ISO compliance.
Learn the basics of cloud security and posture management within a multi-cloud governance framework, and connect assets in another public cloud, such as AWS, to Microsoft Defender for cloud.
Security governance
This course teaches you security governance from a cloud perspective. You learn how to create policies and standards and implement these in public clouds such as Azure and AWS. A Cloud security governance framework template is provided for you to use in your own work.
NIST CSF 2.0
During the course you learn to develop a cloud security governance framework and create a holistic security architecture for multicloud using NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0.
Security operations using Azure Arc
A more technically oriented section cover security operations in Azure and AWS using Azure Arc as a tool for multicloud visibility.
Cloud security posture management
Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is covered in the last section of the course. In this section you learn how to set up Microsoft Defender for cloud to connect to resources in AWS.
