The Red Hat Security: Linux in Physical, Virtual, and Cloud (RH415) course is designed for security and system administration personnel who manage the secure operation of computer systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux on physical hardware, as virtual machines, or as cloud instances both in private data centers and on public cloud platforms.

• Maintaining the security of computing systems is a process of managing risk through the implementation of processes and standards backed by technologies and tools. “Red Hat Security: Linux in Physical, Virtual, and Cloud” (RH415) is designed for security administrators and system administrators who need to manage the secure operation of servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, whether deployed on physical hardware, as virtual machines, or as cloud instances.

• You will learn about technologies and tools that can be used to help you implement and comply with your security requirements, including the kernel’s Audit subsystem, AIDE, SELinux, OpenSCAP and SCAP Workbench, USBGuard, PAM authentication, and Network-Based Device Encryption. You will learn to monitor compliance and to proactively identify, prioritize, and resolve issues by using OpenSCAP, Red Hat Insights, Red Hat Satellite, and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform.

• You will have a basic introduction to how Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform automates the deployment of remediation to systems, by using Ansible Playbooks from OpenSCAP or Red Hat Insights.

• This course is based on RHEL 9.2, Ansible Core 2.14, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4, Satellite 6.14, and OpenSCAP 1.3.7.

• Maintaining the security of computing systems is a process of managing risk through the implementation of processes and standards backed by technologies and tools. In this course, you will learn about resources that can be used to help you implement and comply with your security requirements.

• Following course completion, you will receive a 45-day extended access to hands-on labs for any course that includes a virtual environment.
