CISA Releases New Courses on Cloud Security and Cybersecurity for Government and Veteran Users

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has announced the release of two new cybersecurity courses: Cloud Security and Foundations of Cybersecurity for Management. Federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial government and veteran users can access these courses, track their progress, and store course transcripts.

• The two-and-a-half-hour Cloud Computing Security course will explore guidance from the Cloud Security Alliance, National Institute of Standards and Technology, National Security Agency, and several Cloud Service Providers. Topics will cover cloud security risks and threats, basic operations, incident response considerations, as well as application, data, and infrastructure security concepts.
• The two-hour Foundations of Cybersecurity for Managers course is for stakeholders involved in decision making for security in a cyber environment who do not have a strong technical background. The course will focus on cybersecurity concepts and methodologies involved in building a resilient cyber enterprise.
