Cloud Security Training in Australia

Cloud adoption changes how applications are built, deployed and operated — shifting responsibility between vendor and customer while introducing cloud-native platforms (containers, serverless, managed services) that require adapted security controls. Security must therefore address infrastructure hardening, identity and access management, data protection, secure development practices, and cloud-specific threat vectors.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level developers, security engineers, and IT managers who wish to gain practical, hands-on skills to secure cloud applications and their supporting infrastructure, while learning repeatable controls and assessment techniques that map to current industry frameworks and cloud provider guidance.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Explain the cloud shared-responsibility model and apply it to application security decisions.
• Harden cloud infrastructure (IaaS), secure platform services (PaaS) and evaluate SaaS configurations.
• Apply secure coding and OWASP-based mitigation patterns to cloud-hosted applications.
• Integrate security tooling into CI/CD pipelines (SAST/DAST/DAST/IAST/RASP) and adopt shift-left practices.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion tied to live demos.
• Hands-on labs using cloud consoles, containers, serverless functions, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Practical exercises: secure configuration, vulnerability scanning, attack simulation and remediation planning.

The course is providing practical knowledge on OpenStack and private cloud security. It starts from the introduction to the system, then the participants are getting practical knowledge on security in private clouds and securing OpenStack installation. During the course, each of the core OpenStack modules is presented, participants are building up virtual identity, image, network, compute and storage resources while discussing relevant security topics. Each participant is getting their own training environment with a complete OpenStack installation based on selected cloud architecture (eg. storage, networking). The training could be highly customized based on the needs of the client.

Customization options
The training can be contracted to 2 days, focusing on core aspects relevant for the customer. The training can be also extended regarding administrative, design, networking and/or troubleshooting topics concerning OpenStack deployments
