Announcing the launch of AWS Cloud Audit Academy 201 for audit and compliance teams!
PwC is thrilled to have worked in collaboration with AWS to help create the curriculum for Cloud Audit Academy 201! When AWS announced Cloud Audit Academy - Cloud Agnostic (CAA Cloud Agnostic) at re:Inforce 2016, it helped address the governance, risk, and compliance needs of engineering teams desiring to move compliant workloads to the cloud. Further, the course considers security IT auditing techniques specific to the agnostic cloud.
Cloud Audit Academy 201 (CAA 201) takes that training a step further. With so many of our customers already in the cloud - or ready to be - we’ve seen a huge increase in the need to meet regulatory and compliance requirements. With the perspective of PwC’s deep governance, risk and controls experience to enhance the curriculum, CAA 201 helps participants address risks and auditing security in the cloud specific to AWS tools and services.
