About this programme

As organizations increasingly migrate their operations, data, and applications to the cloud, managing associated risks has become a critical priority. While cloud computing offers scalability, flexibility, and cost efficiency, it also introduces unique risks related to data security, compliance, vendor dependency, and operational resilience.

This course provides a comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, and managing cloud-related risks across different service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and deployment environments (public, private, hybrid). It equips participants with practical tools and globally aligned best practices to ensure secure and compliant cloud adoption.

Participants will learn how to evaluate cloud service providers, implement robust security controls, manage data privacy risks, and integrate cloud risk management into enterprise risk management (ERM) frameworks.
