CCSK Plus v5 | Cloud Governance, Risk and Compliance Training Week

40 CPE’s

Intrinsec’s CCSK | Cloud GRC Training Week is an exclusive learning program that combines three of our most in-demand cloud security classes to provide learners with a full week of cutting-edge cloud security knowledge. In its fifth iteration, the Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) v5 has been extensively updated to provide a deep understanding of modern cloud architecture, security best practices, and emerging cloud security challenges, including the impact of AI. CCSK v5 equips cybersecurity professionals with crucial knowledge, covering the latest in cloud-native security, virtual networking, data protection, DevSecOps, Zero Trust, and Generative AI.

Cloud GRC is a 2-day course delivering students a workshop environment in which they create and execute an audit plan based on their security policy. Students work to identify and assess risks within their environments based on internal documentation as well as Cloud Security Alliance, NIST, and vendor guidance papers. The course is approximately a 50/50 split between lecture and hands-on activities. This body of knowledge was developed by Intrinsec trainers in response to former CCSK Plus learners.

Learning Objectives

The objective of the CCSK is to enable everyone, from information security experts and CEOs to department managers and technical sales teams, the ability to utilize cloud services more securely and speak with confidence about cloud security concerns.

This class will provide a broad overview of cloud security and allows learners to gain critical insights into issues such as data security, key management, and identity and access management.

Earning the CCSK will provide the knowledge to effectively develop a holistic cloud security program relative to globally accepted standards.

The Cloud GRC session reviews how to effectively and appropriately assess cloud computing services and providers. Not only that, but you will also learn to identify how an enterprise and its people can assess their own readiness to adopt cloud computing, along with the ability to monitor the internal usage of cloud services once implemented.
