IR in cloud Architecture Patterns
RCCE students will learn incident response procedures specific to cloud environments including cloud evidence acquisition, cloud-native log analysis, container forensics, serverless investigation, and cross-cloud incident coordination. RCCE students will learn to execute incident response in AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, collect and preserve cloud evidence before resource termination, analyze cloud-native logs to reconstruct attacker activity, investigate compromised cloud identities and resources, contain threats across cloud services, coordinate response efforts in shared responsibility models, and develop cloud-specific incident response playbooks and runbooks. This architecture course teaches secure system design using proven patterns, guardrails, and reference architectures. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn to evaluate design options against security requirements, make informed trade-off decisions, and build systems that are resilient by design. Students gain the architectural thinking skills needed for security engineering and solution design roles.
