Securing multi-cloud deployments and CloudOps platforms involves managing the security and privacy of your cloud services. In this course, you'll explore the key principles and strategies for securing the enterprise cloud, recommended practices and models for perimeter security, and how to choose appropriate security mechanisms. You'll examine the configurable options for security mechanisms on both service and client side, the prominent intrusion detection techniques for managing cloud computing and security challenges, and prominent cloud audit methods. Next, you'll learn approaches for overcoming the impacts of security challenges in multi-cloud environments, best practices for improving the security of multi-cloud deployments, and how to secure CloudOps platforms to build secure pipelines, middleware, and infrastructure for multi-cloud applications. Finally, you'll explore issues a cloud architect should consider when designing cloud solutions and cloud service consumers should evaluate and manage the security and privacy of cloud services.
