About This Workshop
This lab walks through the process of deploying the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Core Landing Zone (previously named ‘OCI CIS Landing Zone’). This is a curated Terraform-based template to automate provisioning of a secure OCI tenancy and all required services that is compliant with the Center of Internet Security (CIS) benchmark for OCI. Landing Zones help customers accelerates onboarding to OCI and achieve a strong, secure architecture foundation and best-practice configurations for future scaling.

This lab provides an overview of the OCI Core Landing Zone and its components, an explanation of how to deploy the landing zone via GitHub or OCI Resource Manager service, how to use it to assess the security posture of your OCI environment, and how to maintain it and ensure ongoing CIS compliance.

In the lab, users will create a set of CIS-compliant cloud resources to jumpstart their development on OCI. To do this, they will upload the Terraform files from the OCI Core Landing Zone on GitHub to OCI Resource Manager, configure them, and then run them to provision their tenancy with key services, including a 3-tier Virtual Cloud Network, Compartments, Groups, IAM Policies, and more.
