ISC2 – Certified Cloud Security Professional – CCSP

Overview

The ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) is the gold-standard certification for cloud security architects, engineers, and senior cybersecurity professionals responsible for designing, securing, and governing cloud environments.

In Eric Reed’s program, CCSP is positioned as a mid-to-senior level certification for professionals who want to master cloud security across AWS, Azure, GCP, hybrid, and multi-cloud infrastructures. It validates expertise in cloud architecture, data protection, DevSecOps, identity management, compliance, and cloud security operations.

For anyone looking to advance into cloud-focused security roles—or combine CISSP knowledge with deep cloud security expertise—the CCSP is one of the most respected credentials you can earn.
