FAQ
Why is cloud security important?
With companies accelerating their migration to the cloud to save costs and increase efficiency and scalability, ensuring data security in the cloud is a top priority. Organizations need skilled and reputable cloud security professionals to secure their sensitive business information and intellectual property against increasingly sophisticated cyberthreats.
While third-party cloud service providers like AWS, Azure, and GCP manage the physical infrastructure underpinning the cloud, the responsibility for securing data assets—and, depending on the cloud service model, elements like application code—remains with the customer. A certified cloud security professional can help organizations develop robust security strategies that minimize the risks associated with cloud migration.
What do cloud security engineers do?
Cloud security engineers develop and implement methods to secure and monitor cloud environments. They evaluate and respond to cyberthreats, automate and configure security controls, support incident handling and response, and perform cloud security audits.
Cloud security engineers are often also responsible for creating governance, risk, and compliance frameworks as well as disaster recovery and business continuity plans for cloud security incidents. In line with this, they may be tasked with providing feedback on their organization’s current security posture; evaluating the security standards and features of offerings like AWS Cloud, Azure, and GCP; and ensuring that their company complies with applicable laws and regulations for cloud computing and storage.
How can I become a cloud security engineer?
Cloud security training like that offered in the Certified Cloud Security Engineer program will equip you with the essential skills and knowledge you need to defend cloud environments against potential cyberattacks.
If you’re a beginner, consider starting with a baseline certification like EC-Council’s Certified Security Specialist (E|CSS), followed by the Network Defense Essentials (N|DE) course in the Essentials Series, and finally, the C|CSE. If you already have experience in information security, the C|CSE program is an excellent way to expand your skill set and knowledge base by mastering cloud security.
I’m interested in a career in cloud security. Are cloud security certifications necessary?
Cloud security certifications are highly recommended when applying for a senior-level cloud security position. They significantly boost your resume and earning potential. Certifications validate your knowledge and skills in securing cloud environments, making you a more attractive candidate to employers.
