WORKSHOPS

The Cloud Security and Data Protection in Financial Services course provides a comprehensive understanding of securing cloud environments in the financial sector. As financial institutions increasingly adopt cloud technologies, ensuring data security, regulatory compliance, and risk mitigation has become a top priority. Participants will explore cloud computing models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and associated risks, identity and access management (IAM), encryption, secure configurations, and third-party cloud risk management. The course also covers regulatory compliance frameworks (e.g., GDPR, PCI DSS, ISO 27001) and best practices for incident response in cloud-based financial systems. Case studies of cloud security breaches will provide real-world insights into risk management and remediation strategies. By the end of this workshop, learners will have the skills to design, implement, and maintain secure cloud environments while ensuring compliance with industry regulations & standards.
