Risk management ensures that realized threats have minimal impact on business operations. This 16-video course explores how security controls address security objectives, as well as the IT audit process, and how to configure high availability for cloud services. This course helps learners prepare for the Certified Cloud Security Professional exam. Key concepts covered include: risk as it applies to cloud services and underlying infrastructure, and risk analysis and management posture regarding cloud computing; integration of information security and risk management activities into a formal framework; threats and attack vectors associated with cloud services and infrastructure; and threat mitigation and attack handling techniques. Next, learn to generate an Azure storage account shared access signature, how to deploy an Azure network security group; and how to configure an Azure role-based access control (RBAC) to control virtual machine (VM) management. Finally, learn about certain auditing techniques and responsibilities and various types of audit reports. Learn how to conduct an Azure VM failover test; to deploy an Azure VM scale set; and to deploy an Azure load balancer.
