Building a strong workforce equipped to deal with the cloud security crisis to help businesses operate smoothly is the focus of our partnership with Wissen”.
As per Fortune Business Insights, the cloud security market is estimated to reach $106.02 Billion by 2029. Security professionals require a certification that offers a blend of vendor-neutral and vendor-specific concepts to enhance the core knowledge needed in cloud security.
