CompTIA Cloud+: Monitoring and Common Attack Types

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Modern computing environments are vulnerable to the ever-increasing threat of sophisticated attacks. Understanding how to monitor cloud environments and recognize these attacks is a key component of being a cloud administrator. In this course, learn about monitoring and common attack types, beginning with event monitoring, deviation from the baseline, unnecessary open ports, vulnerability exploitation, and human error. Next, explore outdated software, patching best practices, and protecting against social engineering, phishing, malware, ransomware, and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Finally, examine cryptojacking, zombie instances, and metadata exploits. This course is one of a collection that prepares learners for the CV0-004: CompTIA Cloud+ certification exam.
