Managing encryption at rest and in transit.
– A Fellow at the SANS Institute and Principal Security Engineer at Puma Security, Johnson co-authors SEC549 along with SEC510 and SEC540. He leads hands-on training in cloud security and develops open-source tools to help practitioners secure cloud pipelines.
SANS SEC 549 (2021) is a SANS Institute security control guidance document (training/course module) covering modern defensive techniques for detecting and responding to threats in enterprise environments. It emphasizes threat hunting, endpoint detection and response (EDR), network telemetry, and incident response playbooks to reduce dwell time and detect advanced adversaries.

The labs are built around the Delos International Management case study, allowing students to threat-model and analyze challenges that mirror real-world cloud migration scenarios.
: Students observe "anti-patterns" (flawed architectural designs) and must correct them to match best practices.
The curriculum is structured around several foundational pillars that address the complexities of cloud-native security. 1. Identity and Access Management (IAM) Managing encryption at rest and in transit
: The course aligns with the GIAC Cloud Security Architecture and Design (GCAD) certification, which validates the ability to design resilient cloud infrastructures.
When a former sumo wrestler turned police officer must protect a valuable artifact from a powerful crime syndicate, he finds an unlikely ally in a mysterious, agile young woman with ties to the underworld.
Data security is addressed through comprehensive coverage of data perimeters, data lake architecture, shared KMS implementations, and disaster recovery designs. These topics are essential for organizations handling sensitive information in multi-cloud environments. SANS SEC 549 (2021) is a SANS Institute
is a premier training course designed by the SANS Institute to equip modern cybersecurity professionals with the hands-on skills required to design, threat-model, and centralize security controls across complex enterprise cloud estates. Originating as a critical evolution in SANS’ cloud security curriculum, the course tackles the vast, distributed perimeters and unfamiliar trust boundaries that organizations face during mass digital transformation.
The SEC549 curriculum is structured around five foundational pillars designed to eliminate architectural blind spots. 1. Cloud Corporate Governance and Risk Assessment
