Security News > 2021 > April > Cloud security threats are growing – crucially, is your skills toolkit keeping pace?

Whatever unit of measurement you use, it's clear that more and more enterprise computing is happening in the cloud - which also means the cloud is an ever-growing target for cyber attackers.
SANS Institute has expanded its line-up of cloud-focused security courses, adding six freshly minted courses, with a seventh one currently in beta testing phase.
In June SANS will be hosting the CloudSecNext Summit- a completely free to attend online summit which will include In-depth Cloud security Summit talks & interactive sessions featuring speakers from all around the world.
Of course, there's more than one cloud, and most of the courses will take you deep into AWS and Azure, while some will also cover GCP and other service providers.
With such a breadth of cloud security courses to take, you might be left wondering how they all fit into your career plan.
Cloud security analysts, engineers, architects, and management all have their own curricula mapped out.
