ADMIN-332: Securing Cloudera on premises
The significant improvements in CDP architecture and tools makes CDP “Secure by Design.” The Cloudera Data Platform is intended to meet the most demanding technical audit standards. This four-day hands-on course is presented as a project plan for CDP administrators to achieve technical audit standards.The first project stage is implementing Perimeter Security by installing host level security and Kerberos. The second project stage protects Data by implementing Transport Layer Security using Auto-TLS and data encryption using Key Management System and Key Trustee Server (KMS/KTS). The third project stage controls Access for users and to data using Ranger and Atlas. The fourth stage teaches Visibility practices for auditing systems, users, and data usage. This project stage also analyzes applications in terms of vulnerabilities and introduces CDP practices for Risk Management in a fully secured Cloudera Data Platform.
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:Explore CDP Security Models and Pillars.Implement Isolated Networks for enhanced security.Design Architecture for Network Security.Evaluate Identity Management options.Implement PAM, LDAP, and define Roles in Cloudera Manager.Implement Quality Controlled Hosts and meet CDP Requirements.Encrypt Network Traffic and deploy TLS using Auto-TLS and SASL.Ensure Authentication with Kerberos.
