About this course
A physical structure that is built by engineers and architects needs solid design, construction, and ongoing maintenance. The same can be said for a networking and system environment. Begin this course by exploring fundamental security architectural considerations, including high availability, resilience, scalability, and responsiveness. Then, you will discover cloud computing, focusing on the cloud responsibility matrix, hybrid considerations, and third-party vendors. You will investigate Infrastructure as Code, compare serverless technologies, and learn about containers and microservices. Next, you will take a look at network infrastructure, centralized and decentralized design, and virtualization. Finally, you will examine industrial control systems (ICSs), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, and the Internet of Things. This course is part of a series that prepares you for the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
