Course description

A reliable security concept for platforms and pipelines is critically important. Almost anyone can assemble a Proof of Concept without a proper level of protection, but if you want to become a good data engineer, you must understand how to protect your work and data. That is why I created this security course - so that you are well-prepared for your role as a data engineer. In the course, we will cover fundamental yet highly important topics that you will constantly encounter in real work.

Network Security

In this section, you will learn about the key methods and tools for network-level protection—from configuring firewalls to access control lists (ACL). I will explain how they work and how they are interconnected.

We will also discuss proxy servers and bastion hosts, which are important elements that restrict access to the platform and specific security zones. You will learn how they operate, how they connect to your network, and which protocols they use for interaction.

Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Next, we will delve into identity and access management. You will understand the difference between these concepts and how they interact with each other and with various network components.

I will also explain what LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is and how it helps secure proxy servers and bastion hosts.

Data Transmission Security

Finally, we will discuss the protection of transmitted data. I will show you why it is important to use secure protocols like HTTPS and how to implement them in practice. We will also touch on the topic of APIs and explore how communications can be secured using encrypted tokens.
