>> Here we are, Domain 3: Cloud
00:00
Platforms and Infrastructure Security.
00:00
In this lesson, we're going to go
00:00
over the topics covered in Domain 3,
00:00
talk about the importance of Domain 3,
00:00
and then relate the concepts in Domain 3 to
00:00
what we've covered already in domains 1 and 2.
00:00
Cloud platform and infrastructure security.
00:00
Here in Domain 3 you are truly in the driver seat for
00:00
determining the appropriate protections
00:00
for your Cloud platform and infrastructure security.
00:00
We're going to go over the components
00:00
of infrastructure security.
00:00
We have touched upon them in Domain 1,
00:00
but we're going to go in greater depth now in Domain 3.
00:00
We also, in Domain 2,
00:00
talked about protecting data at various states.
00:00
We're going to go deeper and talk
00:00
about how those controls
00:00
for protecting data are
00:00
applied in the infrastructure context.
00:00
You're going to learn about how to ensure that you are
00:00
either using or developing a secure Cloud data center.
00:00
Then part of that process is going to be understanding
00:00
all the risks that related to Cloud infrastructure.
00:00
You're going to be well-prepared
00:00
to handle those risks because we're going to
00:00
discuss many of the countermeasures
00:00
that can be implemented
00:00
within the Cloud to protect against any of these risks.
00:00
Returning to the business case that
00:00
really drives movement to the Cloud,
00:00
we're going to talk about business continuity
00:00
and disaster recovery.
00:00
Business continuity is ensuring that
00:00
your organization is back on its feet
00:00
in the result of an unforeseen circumstance.
00:00
Disaster recovery is specific to restoring
00:00
the availability of your Cloud-based infrastructure.
00:00
I hope you're excited to learn about
00:00
Cloud infrastructure because we have a lot to
00:00
go through. Let's reflect a moment.
00:00
What Cloud infrastructure are you
00:00
responsible for protecting?
00:00
Even if your organization is still
00:00
on-premise and considering going into the Cloud,
00:00
you're going to have to leverage
00:00
underlying infrastructure to hosting provider.
00:00
As we've talked about in Domain 2,
00:00
the data needs protecting
00:00
wherever it resides in the Cloud.
00:00
You want to think that if
00:00
I'm responsible for protecting data,
00:00
I also need to think about defense in depth and
00:00
how that data is protected
00:00
on the infrastructure in the Cloud.
00:00
I also want you to think about
00:00
>> how familiar are you with
00:00
>> your organization's business continuity process.
00:00
Everyone really has a role to play
00:00
in an urgency situation.
00:00
But oftentimes people don't
00:00
think of these risks because
00:00
they're remote or infrequent.
00:00
However, it's critical to
00:00
ensure that you get the most out of
00:00
your Cloud deployment by
00:00
having effective business continuity.
00:00
Within business continuity there is disaster recovery.
00:00
You have to define this process in
00:00
the Cloud to understand how to really restore
00:00
your services and get
00:00
the business back up and running
00:00
within acceptable limits.
00:00
We'll go into all that in this module.
00:00
In summary, we talked about the topics
00:00
covered in Domain 3,
00:00
we talked about the importance of Domain 3,
00:00
and now we're talking about how the concepts
00:00
of Domain 3 affect your organization.
00:00
I'll see you in the next lesson.
