AI Academy / Technical

Deploy it securely.

The administration path. Plan a deployment that stays beside the control path, configure access and security to pass a review, and govern data so the savings ledger stays auditable and compliant.

§01Who it's for

Built for the Administrator.

IT administrators, security, and platform owners responsible for deployment, access, and governance.

Prerequisite

IT or security administration experience. The Security page is a useful reference.

§02Outcomes

What you'll learn.

By the end of this path, you'll be able to:

Plan a deployment that sits beside the control path, never in it

Configure SSO, roles, and least-privilege access across teams

Meet a security review — encryption, audit logging, and documented controls

Govern data ownership, retention, residency, and lineage

Administer the deployment — user lifecycle, monitoring, backups, and incident response

§03Curriculum

The modules.

5 self-paced modules · ≈1 hr 52 min total.

01
Deployment & architecture

Deployment topologies, network boundaries, and how KaizenFlow sits beside — never in — the control path.

24 min
02
Identity & access

SSO, roles, and least-privilege access across operations, engineering, and finance.

22 min
03
Security posture

Data in transit and at rest, audit logging, and the controls your security review will ask about.

24 min
04
Data governance

Ownership, retention, residency, and lineage — keeping the savings ledger auditable and compliant.

22 min
05
Operate & administer

User lifecycle, monitoring, backups, and incident response for a healthy deployment.

How it's assessed

A hands-on administration lab against a simulated multi-plant tenant: plan a beside-the-control-path deployment, configure SSO and least-privilege RBAC, then defend a security-and-governance package (encryption, audit logging, retention/residency/lineage, and an incident-response runbook) the way you would in a real security review.

2 attempts included; 14-day cooldown between attempts.

What's tested

  • Placing KaizenFlow beside, never in, the control path with correct boundaries and read-only data flow
  • Standing up SSO and a least-privilege RBAC model across operations, engineering, and finance without over-granting
  • Defending security posture to review standard — encryption, audit logging, and documented controls
  • Governing data ownership, retention, residency, and lineage, plus a user-lifecycle and incident-response runbook

Every credential carries a unique ID and a shareable badge — verifiable by anyone, no login, valid for 24 months.

§05Questions

Answers, up front.

Does KaizenFlow sit in the control path?

No — and a full module covers exactly this. It reads from your SCADA/historian/MES and sits beside the line, never in the control loop.

Will this help with our security review?

Yes. The path maps directly to the controls a security review asks about — encryption, audit logging, access, and data governance.

What do I earn?
