EC-Council's C|CSE Certification: Mastering Cloud Security w/ Sivva Kannan - Key Takeaways and FAQs (2023)

Introduction

Sivva Kannan is an expert in cloud security with extensive experience working with various cloud service providers such as Azure, AWS, and GCP.

In this video, Sivva talks about the importance of cloud security, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. He highlights the shift towards cloud computing and the need to improve security measures for cloud-based services. Sivva also discusses the limitations of current cloud certifications and recommends the Certified Cloud Security Engineer (C|CSE) certification offered by EC-Council.

Here are some key takeaways from the video:

• The C|CSE certification covers all four viewpoints of cloud computing: user, functional, implementation, and deployment.
• The C|CSE certification includes 50+ modules with labs that provide practical experience with various cloud service providers.
• Sivva recommends doing each lab exercise twice to fully understand the objective of the exercise and gain real-world experience.
• The C|CSE certification can help you become a cloud security expert and prepare you for individual cloud certifications such as AWS Security or Azure Security.
• The Core Concepts of cloud security methodology remain the same across different cloud service providers.

The CCSE certification is a great way to achieve this and can set you on the path to becoming a cloud security expert.

Here are some FAQs on C|CESE certification

Foreign emerging and as a result of it, we had a global lockdown many Industries around, like they were trying to maintain the existing functionality at a very reduced cost and Cloud actually helped them to achieve that right.

So with that happening without like proper due diligence, there were a lot of you know: movement from on-premise to new kind of cloud, and now, as the world resumes now, they are focusing on to improve the security.

And that's why not a global level? We are having a lot of emphasis on you know, uh.

We already have existing Footprints in cloud and they want to enhance it or improve it at any cost.

So that's where, like Cloud security, is playing a very important role.

You know not just across you know ID sector, but across the world.

Actually most of us are not from cloud backgrounded, so we are not working on a cloud.

You know day in and day out, right way, so we may be a network engineer, we may be uh, you know someone who's working in you know our devops or database administrator.

So if you want to learn Cloud right, it is not going to be uh they.

We are not like looking for one one course which can actually transform us into a cloud into expert right, so we all look for those kind of options and even if you take from an you, know a technical standpoint.

So if you take like ISO 17789, which is you know, cloud computing reference architecture uh the they talk about four viewpoints right, so user Viewpoint, functional implementation and deployment, most of the certifications that we currently have in the market.

They are just talking about only the user, View and the functional view right so uh when it comes to implementation and deployment generally, they say like it is left with the hands of the cloud service provider.

So cloud service provides wider, will take care of it and we don't get an opportunity to learn about the implementation and deployment with the existing certification so far.

But if you take like CCSC certified Cloud security engineer by EC account, so it is actually covering all those four viewpoints talks about the user and functional Viewpoint as well as it talks about the implementation and deployment.

So you can learn about like how the major Cloud Source providers like Azure AWS gcp, they all like uh, how we can actually implement it or enhance it.

So, if you're like looking for one course which will convert you from a Zero to Hero in cloud or Cloud, security, I'd strongly recommend easy consoles.

Certified Cloud security engineer I find like all the modules, are very much relevant to the current scenario, however, like to give more emphasis like you can take like uh, you know the penetration, testing and Cloud forensics so which are like not you know, uh.

We, we would get an opportunity to learn on a day in and day out so uh when you consider, as they mentioned like if you want to become a zero two hero in cloud or Cloud security.

I think these 50 plus models are basically the differentiator here, so uh you will get exposed to all the different cloud service providers.

So, even if you work on one particular Cloud also now you'll get an opportunity to learn how you know the other Cloud Source provided is offering the same kind of functionality to you know understand the differences.

These Labs will be helpful and as a hot tip, what I can say is whenever you're doing the lab try to do it twice? Actually.

So, for the first time, your focus will be only on like getting that output right, making that test cases accessible, but during the second time you will actually understand why you are actually doing it, so the first would be more like how to achieve it, but the second time when you practice, you will understand why we actually uh do that or what exactly is the objective of it? So, yes, we have 50 plus Labs, but my advices should like do it twice so that you'll be very, it will be very helpful in the real time.

Yes, I would suggest because, like we are exposed to all the different uh cloud services in at the same time, so that we can easily correlate and understand and also like if ccse is going to be a first certificate.

So once you have completed all these Labs now you can, you know, go to those individual.

You know certifications like AWS security or Azure security, and you will be able to easily you know clear that out.

So it helps you.

You know, understand individual clouds as well as it helps you to build an overall like Cloud, uh security portion.

Also I would say yes, so uh whatever like currently like AWS or shoot.

They follow the security methodology.

The same kind of methodology start over here, so there's screens or the UI may change every time, but the Core Concepts will still remain the same right and uh since ccse is a very latest score, so they have almost captured the latest.

You know UI possible so that it is very much relevant or like similar to the current environment scenario.

Yes, it is actually delivering.

You know value to us so uh like as I mentioned, like we may not come from a cloud background.

Most of us may not come from an actual Cloud background when we are actually taking up these courses right so like we may be a network engineer or a database administrator right and uh.

By going through this modules, and by doing these lab exercises, we can get an uh end-to-end.

You know uh like Cloud Security Options that are available and that are available at our disposal, also so uh This Cloud this course is basically delivering a lot of value in transforming your journey in the uh to launcher journey.

In the cloud security, the recognition was huge so whenever there is a opportunity with respect to multi-cloud or like where, like multiple Cloud products are involved, so I would be kind of the default person to be called in, because you know I have a basic knowledge of all these basic Cloud uh search providers, uh functionality and that knowledge actually like gave me a lot of recognition in getting those opportunities.
