Market Need
Why this matters now
Cloud Penetration Testing: AWS, Azure and Microsoft 365 addresses a capability that organisations increasingly need but often lack in a structured, defensible form. Teams frequently rely on ad-hoc knowledge, scattered documents or vendor claims instead of a repeatable method.
This programme closes that gap. It gives participants a shared vocabulary, a practical method and a set of reusable artefacts so the organisation can operate this domain consistently rather than reactively.

Framework alignment: Cloud-focused testing across AWS, Azure/Entra ID and Microsoft 365.
