Learn to secure modern cloud infrastructure the way enterprise cloud security engineers do. DronaShield's Cloud Security course in Baner, Pune covers AWS, Azure and GCP security, identity and access management, container security and cloud VAPT, all reinforced with hands-on labs on real cloud consoles.
As organisations move critical workloads to AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, misconfigured cloud environments have become one of the most common causes of data breaches. DronaShield's Cloud Security course in Baner, Pune teaches students to secure cloud infrastructure the way enterprise security teams do, starting from the shared responsibility model and building up to identity, network, data and container security across major cloud platforms.
The course covers AWS identity and access management and native security services, Azure security fundamentals and Sentinel, an introduction to GCP security, container and Kubernetes security, and a dedicated module on cloud VAPT and misconfiguration assessment using tools like ScoutSuite and Prowler. Compliance frameworks relevant to cloud environments, including ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR, are also covered.
Batches run in a hybrid format from our Baner campus, with students from Balewadi, Wakad, Hinjewadi, Aundh and Pashan attending evening or weekend sessions around existing jobs or studies. Every module includes hands-on practice on real cloud consoles inside controlled lab accounts, and the course closes with a capstone project securing a multi-cloud environment end-to-end.
Graduates leave with a DronaShield Institute completion certificate, practical experience across AWS, Azure and GCP security tooling, and a strong foundation for cloud security and DevSecOps roles. Our placement cell works with job-ready students on resume reviews, mock interviews and introductions to hiring partners across Pune's fast-growing cloud security industry.

This Cloud Security course is led by certified trainers drawn from DFIR, SOC and VAPT industry backgrounds with hands-on cloud security experience across AWS, Azure and GCP. Sessions mix short theory blocks with long, supervised lab time on real cloud consoles, and trainers walk through misconfigurations and fixes the way they appear in real environments.
Every module in this course is reinforced with a lab exercise on real cloud consoles inside controlled lab accounts. You will configure IAM policies, set up cloud-native monitoring and alerting, harden storage buckets and networks, scan environments for misconfigurations, secure a containerised application, and finish with a capstone project where you secure a multi-cloud environment end-to-end, exactly as expected on the job.
