Hands-On Misconfigurations

RCCE students will learn cloud and infrastructure misconfiguration detection, prevention, and remediation including CSPM deployment, configuration baseline management, and automated remediation. RCCE students will learn to identify common misconfigurations across cloud platforms including public S3 buckets, overly permissive security groups, unencrypted data stores, and misconfigured identity policies, deploy cloud security posture management tools, establish configuration baselines and detect drift, implement automated remediation for critical misconfigurations, prioritize misconfiguration findings by exploitability and business impact, and build organizational processes that prevent misconfigurations from reaching production. This practice-intensive course emphasizes applied skills through lab exercises, real-world scenarios, and production-realistic workflows. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn by doing, building muscle memory and practical confidence through repeated hands-on engagement. Students complete exercises that mirror actual workplace tasks, ensuring skills transfer directly to their professional roles.
