CONNECT THE CONCEPTS

Explore the systems behind Hybrid Cloud Administrator.

The roadmap above shows how the subjects connect. Explore the curriculum below for every topic, lab and project.

EXPERIENCE THE ROLE

See what a Cloud Security Engineer really does, minute by minute.

Watch a real-world incident unfold on the engineer’s screens and in a 3D model of the systems they look after. Then type the commands yourself and try the same task in a lab.

LIVE SHIFT

A storage bucket with customer invoices is public

  • Role app-deployer has full admin rightsHIGH
  • Access logging off on 2 bucketsMEDIUM
  • MFA enabled for all adminsPASS

    CRITICAL: invoices-prod is publicly readable.

The finding

The security monitor flags a critical issue: the storage bucket holding customer invoices can be read by anyone on the internet.

More to protect as AI adoption grows

AI is already good at

  • Scans for misconfigurations and rates severity
  • Suggests least-privilege IAM policies
  • Drafts remediation steps and reports

You stay essential for

  • Decides which risk the business will accept
  • Secures AI workloads, data and model access
  • Investigates real incidents across accounts
  • Is accountable when something is exposed

Skill to add: Learn IAM deeply and Infrastructure-as-Code security, then add AI and LLM workload security.

  • AWS Security Hub
  • Defender for Cloud
  • IAM
  • Terraform
  • Prowler

Our assessment, not a guarantee. No job is fully AI-proof: people who use AI well replace people who do not.

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED

Your questions, answered.

What does a Hybrid Cloud Administrator do?

They manage servers, identities and devices that span on-premises data centres and Microsoft Azure — for example syncing Active Directory to Entra ID, securing Azure resources and managing laptops and phones with Intune.

What does this program cover?

Three live tracks: AZ-800 Windows Server Hybrid Administrator, AZ-500 Azure Security Technologies and Microsoft Intune endpoint administration.

Can a beginner join?

Yes, but basic Windows and networking knowledge helps. The IT 360 self-paced bundle (MCSA, CCNA, Linux) fills that gap alongside the live classes.

Which certifications does it prepare me for?

Microsoft AZ-800, AZ-500 and the Intune endpoint administrator exam. Training follows the official exam blueprints. Exam vouchers are included only when your enrollment offer says so — check the inclusions at checkout and the vendor's current exam requirements before booking.

Why learn from the top 1% of engineers?

Because passing an exam and doing the job are different skills, and only experience closes the gap. Network Kings mentors have spent 11 to 20+ years building and running networks, cloud platforms and pipelines at companies like Apple, Juniper Networks, IBM and CDAC. They teach what breaks in production, why, and how engineers fix it under pressure.

Same problem, two answers. Pick a track:

On the job: Files from a private S3 bucket turn up on a public link.

The textbook answer

S3 buckets can be public or private. Use bucket policies and ACLs to control who can access them.

Correct. Not enough to fix it.

How a production engineer teaches it

  1. Contain it: turn on S3 Block Public Access for the account, not just the bucket.
  2. Find the cause with IAM Access Analyzer: which policy or ACL opened it.
  3. Check CloudTrail data events to learn what was read, and by whom.
  4. Make it impossible to repeat with an SCP guardrail across every account.
  • The why behind every command, not just the syntax.
  • Hands-on labs for every topic, so the first fault you fix is not at work.
  • Doubts answered by someone who has fixed it in a live network, cloud or pipeline.
