About this course
Protecting data and applications in the cloud is more critical than ever—and this course shows you exactly how it’s done. Cloud Data and Application Security takes you on a practical journey through the core defenses that keep cloud systems trustworthy and resilient. Start by learning about cloud data lifecycle, how encryption and key management keep sensitive data safe, and the role of data privacy, loss prevention, and breach impacts in today's security strategies. Then move on to protecting your cloud applications. Discover secure SDLC, threat modeling & DevSecOps best practices, and security testing methods, including SAST & DAST. Learn to identify common cloud app vulnerabilities, prevent injection attacks, and strengthen APIs and interfaces using OWASP Top 10 principles. Finally, develop a strong governance mindset as you navigate regulatory requirements, risk assessment, reporting, mitigation, and key data governance strategies, including stewardship, audit trails, and SLAs. By the end, you’ll have the skills to confidently secure data and applications across any cloud environment.
