This course introduces the principles of access controls, beginning with the central modes of information security and continuing through various attacks and defenses. It provides an overview of Identity Management and the resources used on modern-day information systems, including Web and cloud-based ones. This course also features a number of fictional scenarios based on access control and identity management that professionals face in the real-world.
When you download an app, or access a database, you want to trust that the software engineer who developed the app had an eye toward security.

Cybersecurity, also known as Information Security, is the protection of data and personally identifiable information from malicious attacks, theft, and destruction. Failures of cybersecurity policies, both in large corporations and governmental agencies, have earned significant visibility and negative publicity in recent months and years. As the amount of data being stored continues to increase, and as hackers become more sophisticated, the need for cybersecurity is greater than ever.
This suite of five related courses covers various aspects of securing cloud services. Its structure is based on the Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) certification administered jointly by the Cloud Security Alliance and (ISC)2. Each course is comprised of two modules. The first provides content related to the course subject matter. The second module engages the learner with real-world scenarios in which he or she must apply the content of the first module.
What would you do in the face of an actual information security problem? These courses each include a module devoted to fictional scenarios, based on real-world challenges that cybersecurity professionals face. Each course is self-paced and contain interactive games, real-world examples, expert videos, quizzes, assessments, and focused instruction.
