This course introduces you to cybersecurity for the cloud. Students will learn and apply classic security techniques to today’s cloud security problems. The course will start with a deceptively simple and secure web service and address the problems arising as we improve it. Students will learn how to analyze recent cloud security vulnerabilities using standard, systematic techniques. In this course, students will build their own web service case studies and construct security solutions for them.
