Welcome to Certified: The GIAC GPCS Audio Course

The podcast delivers practical cloud security guidance for professionals who have to ship real systems on real timelines. Episodes focus on the moves that prevent costly incidents: reducing accidental exposure, tightening identity and permissions, hardening serverless triggers, securing managed platforms, and building durable defaults that survive updates and team changes. The approach is technical and operational, with clear explanations that translate directly into repeatable patterns.

Each topic is designed to help you think like both a defender and an architect: what attackers exploit first, where misconfigurations hide, and how to constrain blast radius without slowing delivery. If you want deeper reference material, a companion book expands the same concepts in a structured format, and a flash cards book supports fast review and retention for day-to-day work, interviews, and certification prep.
