Certified Cloud Penetration Tester
Online, Available in English and Arabic
Overview
Cloud environments are now central to modern infrastructure. But with great flexibility comes new layers of risk. The Certified Cloud Penetration Tester (CCPT) course provides hands-on training for security professionals looking to master offensive security techniques across Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This course prepares you to identify, exploit, and report vulnerabilities in cloud environments through simulated attacks in real-world cloud labs.
As organizations rapidly adopt cloud platforms, traditional penetration testing methods fall short in these dynamic and distributed environments. CCPT bridges this gap by focusing on cloud-native attack vectors, misconfigurations, privilege escalation paths, and lateral movement techniques across the top cloud service providers.
This course is structured around hands-on exercises using real-world scenarios in multi-cloud environments. Participants will engage in offensive operations targeting IAM policies, serverless functions, storage buckets, APIs and so on, mirroring techniques used by real-world adversaries and red teams.
Topics:
Cloud Threat Models
IAM & Policy Exploitation
Container & Serverless Attacks
Exploiting Storage & Key Vaults
GCP/Azure/AWS Specific Attack Chains
Logging, Monitoring & Defense Evasion
Cloud breaches are rising: Learn to attack before attackers do.
Target Audience
Penetration testers expanding into cloud environments
By the end of this course, the participant will be able to:
Reconnaissance and enumeration techniques tailored to each cloud provider
Attacking misconfigured IAM roles, policies, and trust relationships
Exploiting serverless, containerized, and hybrid environments
Privilege escalation within and across cloud accounts
Bypassing security controls like MFA, CSPM, and endpoint protections
Exfiltration techniques and stealth post-exploitation in the cloud
