Cloud Security Training in Nepal

The CCSK Foundation program begins with foundational concepts, gradually advancing in complexity as it explores all 16 domains of the CSA Security Guidance, insights from the European Union Agency for Network & Information Security (ENISA), and a comprehensive overview of the Cloud Controls Matrix.

This is a Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) approved course, and NobleProg operates as an official CSA Training Partner.

The course is facilitated by CSA-certified CCSK Instructors.
Every participant receives:

• official CSA CCSK Foundation completion certificates
• official CCSK Foundation Student Handbooks
• 1 CCSK exam voucher along with 1 re-attempt exam voucher

The curriculum aligns with the latest iteration of the CCSK exam, which is currently version 4.1.

Description:

This two-day CCSK Plus programme encompasses all the material from the CCSK Foundation course and enhances it with comprehensive practical labs on the second day. Learners will apply their acquired knowledge through a series of exercises centred around a scenario where a fictional organisation securely transitions to the cloud. Upon completion of this training, participants will be thoroughly prepared for the CCSK certification exam, which is sponsored by the Cloud Security Alliance. While the second day includes some additional lectures, the majority of the time is dedicated to assessing, constructing, and securing a cloud infrastructure during the practical sessions.

Objectives:

This is a two-day class that commences with CCSK- Basic training, followed by a second day of supplementary content and hands-on activities.

Target Audience:

This class is primarily aimed at security professionals but is also beneficial for anyone seeking to broaden their understanding of cloud security.

The adoption of cloud technologies transforms the way applications are constructed, deployed, and managed. This shift alters the division of responsibilities between service providers and customers, while introducing cloud-native platforms—such as containers, serverless architectures, and managed services—that necessitate adapted security controls. Consequently, security strategies must encompass infrastructure hardening, identity and access management, data protection, secure development practices, and specific cloud threat vectors.

This instructor-led, live training, available online or onsite, is designed for intermediate-level developers, security engineers, and IT managers. Participants will acquire practical, hands-on skills to secure cloud applications and their underlying infrastructure. Additionally, they will learn repeatable controls and assessment techniques aligned with current industry frameworks and cloud provider guidelines.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be capable of:

• Explaining the cloud shared-responsibility model and applying it to application security decisions.
• Hardening cloud infrastructure (IaaS), securing platform services (PaaS), and evaluating SaaS configurations.
• Implementing secure coding practices and OWASP-based mitigation patterns for cloud-hosted applications.
• Integrating security tools into CI/CD pipelines (including SAST, DAST, IAST, and RASP) and adopting 'shift-left' methodologies.

Course Format

• Interactive lectures and discussions supported by live demonstrations.
• Hands-on labs utilizing cloud consoles, containers, serverless functions, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Practical exercises covering secure configuration, vulnerability scanning, attack simulation, and remediation planning.

Shifting to cloud environments creates a unique challenge for financial institutions: it provides exceptional agility yet introduces intricate security layers that conventional audit techniques fail to address. Equipping IT Auditors with specialized cloud security skills is not merely an operational target; it is a fiduciary obligation.

This program is meticulously crafted to convert your audit team into a proactive defensive asset. By the conclusion of this session, participants will transition from theoretical knowledge to practical expertise, ensuring the bank’s cloud infrastructure is resilient against contemporary threats and fully compliant with the stringent standards of the financial sector.

This course imparts practical expertise in OpenStack and private cloud security. It begins with a system introduction, followed by hands-on learning focused on securing private clouds and the OpenStack installation process. Throughout the training, participants explore each core OpenStack module, gaining experience in provisioning virtual identity, image, network, compute, and storage resources while addressing pertinent security considerations. Each attendee receives a dedicated training environment featuring a complete OpenStack deployment tailored to specific cloud architectures (e.g., storage, networking). The curriculum is highly adaptable to meet client-specific requirements.

Customization options
The training duration can be condensed to two days, emphasizing core aspects most relevant to the customer. Alternatively, the course can be expanded to cover administrative, design, networking, and troubleshooting topics related to OpenStack deployments.
