THE BIG PICTURE

About this course

The Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) is a global cloud security certification awarded by ISC2 for professionals who design, manage and secure cloud environments across providers and service models. Over three days you explore the six CCSP domains using a practical lens: cloud architecture and shared responsibility; data protection; platform and infrastructure security; application security; operations; and legal, risk and compliance. Sessions mix instructor-led walkthroughs with hands-on labs, scenario discussions, and structured peer review to relate concepts to your environment. The CCSP exam is administered by ISC2 through Pearson VUE test centres, is closed book, and uses a scaled score with 700/1000 required to pass. The certification operates on a three-year cycle maintained with Continuing Professional Education (90 CPE credits over three years) and an annual maintenance fee. ISC2 owns the certification scheme. MindClick provides training and exam preparation and is not an accredited or authorised partner.

What you’ll learn

Explain the six CCSP domains and map them to cloud service and deployment models
Design cloud security architecture with clear shared-responsibility boundaries and threat modelling
Classify cloud data and apply encryption, tokenisation and key management across the data lifecycle
Harden cloud platforms using IAM, network segmentation, secure configurations and infrastructure as code
Integrate security into cloud application delivery, including containers, serverless and CI/CD controls
Operate logging, monitoring, incident response and resilience across single and multi-cloud environments
Assess legal, risk and compliance obligations and reflect them in contracts, SLAs and audit evidence
Practise timed CCSP-style questions, complete a mock exam and create a personal study and booking plan
