DSO 301 - Orchestrating Secure System and Service Configuration

Course Overview

Building and maintaining quality software requires functional configuration management, but this is easier said than done in today’s day and age. This process involves automation, but minimizing errors while securely and systematically managing changes in systems is complicated. This course provides Systems Developers, Network Operations Specialists, System Administrators, and Systems Security Analysts with the necessary skills to consistently and securely manage environments.

Upon successful completion of this course, learners will have the knowledge and skills required to meet compliance requirements while developing a DevSecOps mindset, including:

• Identifying and mitigating gaps in your current orchestration security policies
• Ensuring the coordination and consistency of security policies across the enterprise
• The importance of maintaining immutability of live container instances, ensuring that changes occur in the source control and are only deployed via new versions of the resource
• Understanding the role of third-party tools such as Clair, Actuary, and Anchore in testing Infrastructure-as-Code (IAC) and Configuration-as-Code (CAC) platforms
