CCSP: Certified Cloud Security Professional

More and more organizations are doing away with their on-premise tech systems and putting their infrastructure in the cloud. Although the cloud is more secure than on-site systems, it doesn’t guarantee security, hackers are gonna hack no matter where data is stored. This growing trend is making cloud security a hot commodity, and, by extension, putting IT professionals specializing in cloud security in high demand.

Nothing says “expert” faster than having a certification on your resume. Becoming a certified security expert definitely furthers your marketability. Earning a Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) certificate puts you in this professional niche and positions you to take advantage of this growing need.
