A security architect designs the controls, boundaries and patterns that let an organisation operate safely, and defends those designs to engineers, executives and auditors. This track covers the whole role in six stages: the mental models and frameworks architects reason with, identity as the new perimeter, network and cloud security design, detection and response architecture, resilience against the worst day, and the governance, risk and communication that make a design stick. Every lesson ends with an action step that builds a portfolio artefact.

For security engineers, analysts and infrastructure architects who want to move from implementing controls to designing them.
