Program Overview

As the use of cloud computing grows, so does the need for professionals who can navigate and secure cloud environments. Stand out to employers with a graduate certificate focusing specifically on cloud security — the first credential of its kind offered by Ontario public colleges. In just eight months, you'll understand theory behind cloud security and know how to apply it in real-world scenarios.


This program covers a wide range of topics that provide a well-rounded understanding of cloud principles and practices, including:

  • Linux operating systems.
  • Designing and securing infrastructures in cloud-based ecosystems.
  • Vulnerability management strategies.
  • Unique challenges and solutions within cloud architectures.
  • DevSecOps software development best practices.


No previous cloud security training is required for entry into this specialized program. It could be your first step towards further education in the field, including an Amazon Web Services (AWS) certification. It can also enhance your existing computer science expertise or complement other graduate certificate programs at Sheridan, such as Internet of Things and Machine Intelligence.
