Technical: "Hacking the Cloud: Attack, Detect & Defend"

Intro: Why this is Germany's hottest skill

0:00 – 0:15

NIS2 created 29,000 new companies that legally must hire security staff. 106,000 open roles, ~5,000 graduates/year. Show a live Shodan search to find exposed servers in real time — instant hook.

Block 1: How cloud security actually works

0:15 – 0:40

Shared responsibility model (what AWS protects vs. what YOU must protect). IAM misconfiguration demo — create an over-privileged role and see what an attacker can do. Fix it live.

Block 2: The S3 Bucket Challenge (CTF-style)

0:40 – 1:15

Students are given a misconfigured AWS sandbox. Mission: find the exposed bucket, extract the "secret flag", then remediate the vulnerability. The most memorable 35 minutes of the workshop.

Block 3: Zero Trust in 15 minutes

1:15 – 1:40

Set up MFA + conditional access on a free Azure tenant. Students leave having actually configured a real enterprise security policy. Ties directly to what German companies mandate post-NIS2.

Outro: Your roadmap to a job

1:40 – 2:00

Cert path: Security+ → AWS Cloud Practitioner → AZ-500. Salary ranges (€45k–€95k+). Where to practice: TryHackMe "Cloud Security" path. Which German cities to target by sector.

Non-technical: "From Research to Results: Intelligence & Data Storytelling with Google"

Students learn to research smarter with NotebookLM and present data beautifully with Looker Studio — two free Google tools almost no business or design student knows, but every employer uses.
