CISM 2022: Cloud Computing & Coding

The use of cloud services is a form of outsourcing of IT service which also introduces an element of risk. Software developers can use on-premises as well as cloud-based services to create test and deploy software solutions.

In this course you will explore cloud deployment models including public private hybrid and community clouds. You will then cover cloud computing service models such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) including where the security responsibility lies in each model. Next you will explore various cloud-based security controls addressing a wide variety of cloud computing security needs. You will discover how to deploy a repeatable compliant cloud-based sandbox environment using Microsoft Azure Blueprints. Next explore how security must be included in each software development life cycle (SDLC) phase as opposed to post-implementation. Finally discover the importance of secure coding practices and how security must integrate with software development testing deployment and patching.

This course can be used to prepare for the Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) exam.
