Online Cloud Security Training in Nigeria

The CCSK Plus course builds upon the foundation class by offering expanded content and extensive hands-on activities that reinforce classroom learning. Participants engage in a scenario involving the secure migration of a fictional organization to the cloud, providing them with the opportunity to apply their knowledge through a series of activities that mirror real-world requirements.

The CCSK Plus course encompasses all modules from the CCSK Foundation course, along with additional material.

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

The course is delivered by CSA Authorized CCSK Instructors.

All attendees receive:

• official CSA CCSK Plus course certificates
• official CCSK Foundation Student Handbooks
• 1 CCSK exam voucher and 1 re-attempt exam voucher

This course covers the most current version of the CCSK exam, which is currently version 4.1.

Cloud Computing Security Knowledge (CCSK) Preparation Course

This CCSK course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of security issues and best practices across a broad spectrum of cloud computing domains. As cloud computing becomes the dominant IT infrastructure, CCSK is relevant to a wide variety of IT and information security roles in virtually every organization. It is strongly recommended for IT auditors, system administrators, and security professionals with at least 5 years of experience.

Upon completing this course, students will be able to:

• Validate their competence gained through experience in cloud security
• Prepare for the CCSK exam.
• Demonstrate their technical knowledge, skills, and abilities to effectively develop a holistic cloud security program relative to globally accepted standards
• Differentiate themselves from other candidates for desirable employment in the fast-growing cloud security market
• Gain access to valuable career resources, such as tools, networking and ideas exchange with peers
• Protect against threats with qualified professionals who have the expertise to competently design, build, and maintain a secure cloud business environmen

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Description:

The CCSK Plus programme, spanning two days, encompasses all material covered in the CCSK Foundation course and enriches it with comprehensive practical labs on the second day. Participants will put their knowledge into practice by executing a series of exercises centred around a scenario that guides a fictional organisation securely into the cloud. Upon completion, learners will be thoroughly prepared for the CCSK certification exam, which is sponsored by the Cloud Security Alliance. While the second day includes additional lectures, the majority of the time is dedicated to assessing, building, and securing cloud infrastructure through hands-on exercises.

Objectives:

This two-day course commences with CCSK Basic training, followed by a second day featuring supplementary content and practical activities.

Target Audience:

While designed primarily for security professionals, this course is equally beneficial for anyone seeking to broaden their understanding of cloud security.

CCSP is a globally recognized credential derived from the expertise of two industry-leading stewards of information systems and cloud computing security: (ISC)² and CSA. The CCSP credential is applicable to cloud security on a global scale. This is particularly crucial given the legal, regulatory, and compliance challenges associated with the multi-jurisdictional storage of personally identifiable information (PII).

For eligible candidates, the CCSP exam assesses competence across the six CCSP domains of the (ISC)² Common Body of Knowledge (CBK), which encompass:

• Architectural Concepts & Design Requirements
• Cloud Data Security
• Cloud Platform & Infrastructure Security
• Cloud Application Security
• Operations
• Legal & Compliance

The move to the cloud transforms how applications are created, deployed, and managed. This shift redistributes responsibilities between providers and customers while introducing cloud-native platforms—such as containers, serverless environments, and managed services—that demand updated security controls. Consequently, security strategies must encompass infrastructure hardening, identity and access management, data protection, secure development practices, and the mitigation of cloud-specific threats.

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

Upon completing this training, participants will be able to:

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

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: while it enables exceptional agility, it also introduces intricate security layers that conventional audit techniques often fail to address. Equipping IT Auditors with specialized cloud security expertise is not merely an operational objective—it is a fundamental fiduciary duty.

This program is carefully structured to turn your audit team into a proactive line of defense. Upon completion, participants will transition from theoretical knowledge to practical proficiency, ensuring that the bank’s cloud infrastructure remains robust against contemporary threats and fully adheres to the strict standards of the financial sector.

This course will equip you to implement appropriate security controls in the cloud, often using automation to "inspect what you expect." We will begin by diving headfirst into one of the most crucial aspects of cloud - Identity and Access Management (IAM). From there, we'll move on to securing the cloud through discussion and practical, hands-on exercises related to several key topics to defend various cloud workloads operating in the different CSP models of: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Functions as a Service (FaaS).
