Overview

Cloud Audit Academy (CAA) is an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Security Auditing Learning Path designed for existing and prospective auditing, risk, and compliance professionals who are involved in assessing regulated workloads in the cloud.

Today, control framework language is catered towards on-premises environments, and security IT auditing techniques have not been reshaped for the cloud. At AWS, we believe in empowering our customers to apply cloud-specific verification techniques to their audits in the cloud. Cloud Audit Academy provides current and upcoming auditors with the education and tools to audit for security in the cloud using a risk-based approach.

The CAA curriculum is a leveled learning path that starts with a wide scope (cloud and industry agnostic), and narrows as the learner progresses to focus on AWS, framework, and industry-specific content.
