-: In this section of the course, 2 2
we're going to cover cloud infrastructure assessments. 3 3
Now, as we move through this section 4 4
we're going to be looking again 5 5
at Domain 1, Security Operations, 6 6
and Domain 2, Vulnerability Management. 7 7
This time with a focus on objectives 1.1 and 2.2. 8 8
Objective 1.1 states 9 9
that you must be able to explain the importance of system 10 10
and network architecture concepts in security operations. 11 11
And objective 2.2 states that given a scenario 12 12
you must be able to analyze output 13 13
from vulnerability assessment tools. 14 14
Now, as we begin this section 15 15
we're going to be describing the different types 16 16
of cloud threats and vulnerabilities that exist 17 17
out in the real world. 18 18
Then we'll discuss the vulnerability 19 19
of unprotected storage within a cloud environment 20 20
and how cloud forensics can be used to discover information 21 21
from cloud-based resources during an incident response. 22 22
Next, we'll talk about the tools used to 23 23
conduct cloud infrastructure assessments and audits, as well 24 24
as taking a quick look at some common cloud auditing tools 25 25
including things like scout suite. 26 26
After that, we're going to be conducting a demonstration 27 27
of some cloud infrastructure assessment tools 28 28
so you can better understand how to read the output 29 29
from these tools effectively as a cybersecurity analyst. 30 30
And finally, we'll take a short quiz to see what you learned 31 31
during this section of the course 32 32
and review each of those quiz questions to 33 33
ensure you can explain why the right answers were right. 34 34
So let's go ahead 35 35
and start exploring cloud infrastructure assessments 36 36
in this section of the course.
