What is the Production-Grade Cloud Security Foundations course about?

As cloud adoption accelerates, teams struggle to align security practices across engineering, IT, and compliance. Point-in-time fixes lead to technical debt, audit findings, and inconsistent controls. Without a shared foundation, security becomes a bottleneck rather than an enabler.
