- [Mike] Cloud computing presents unique challenges for cybersecurity professionals. Our organizations depend upon the cloud to provide the software, platforms, and infrastructure that drive modern business. Some organizations operate their computing infrastructure almost entirely in the cloud. And it's hard to imagine any organization that doesn't have at least some cloud footprint. When we think about securing the cloud, we worry about the same three goals that drive any information security initiative: protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our information and assets. However, having cloud providers in the mix changes the way that we approach security controls. For this reason, cloud security is an important part of the Security+ curriculum. Hi, I'm Mike Chapple, and I'd like to invite you to watch my course on Cloud Security Design and Implementation. It's part of a 10-course series preparing you for the Security+ exam. I hope that you'll join me as we explore the world of cloud security.
