Network Operations Playbook
RCCE students will learn cloud network security fundamentals including virtual network design, subnet architecture, security groups, network ACLs, load balancer security, CDN protection, and hybrid connectivity security. RCCE students will learn to design secure cloud network architectures across AWS VPC, Azure VNet, and GCP VPC, implement micro-segmentation strategies, configure web application firewalls for cloud workloads, secure inter-region and hybrid connections using VPN and private connectivity services, monitor cloud network traffic for anomalies, and troubleshoot cloud network security issues while maintaining least-privilege network access. This operations-focused course delivers production-ready playbooks, checklists, and standard operating procedures. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn to build repeatable day-to-day operational workflows that ensure consistency and quality. Students receive templates and frameworks they can customize and deploy immediately in their security operations, reducing time to operational effectiveness.
