Why Choose Us

The Certificate in Cloud Management Best Practices training course equips security and management specialists to assess cloud technology risks and manage secure migration effectively. As cloud technologies continue to expand, evaluating commercial appetite and building a migration business case represent only the beginning of a complex process. Moving existing applications and infrastructure securely requires organisations to review internal policies, assess risks and manage legal contracts with cloud vendors. They must also protect corporate and sensitive data, fulfil legal obligations and engineer appropriate security solutions.

Cloud adoption may involve transferring part of the security function to a third party, making early appraisal of available options essential. The course benefits risk management, security, auditing, network and legal professionals by examining current technologies for securing cloud-based solutions. It addresses the policies, practices and procedures needed to meet relevant governance and compliance requirements during a major transformation. Participants explore a practitioner-focused approach to information security management, international best-practice guidance, commercial risks, proactive defences and countermeasures for appropriate security breaches.

This Certificate in Cloud Management Best Practices training course will highlight:

Evaluating the benefits and pitfalls of cloud services
Understanding the fundamentals of information security
Assessing risks to electronic and physical data
Managing cloud vendor service contracts
Protecting corporate data within cloud environments
