Episode 41: Virtualization and Cloud Infrastructure Considerations

from Certified: The CISSP Audio Course Hosted by Dr. Jason Edwards

Virtualization and cloud computing are cornerstones of modern IT, but they also introduce unique security challenges. In this episode, we examine the architecture and risks associated with virtual machines, hypervisors, containers, and cloud platforms. You’ll learn how virtual environments increase complexity and expand the attack surface, and what controls are necessary to mitigate these risks. We also explore the shared responsibility model, virtualization sprawl, tenant isolation, and the importance of secure provisioning. Understanding these technologies is critical for designing secure, scalable, and compliant IT environments.
