Course Prerequisites

Before enrolling in this course, it is recommended that you have:

  • Basic understanding of networking and cloud computing concepts.
  • Experience with Microsoft Azure services (preferably having completed the AZ-900: Microsoft Azure Fundamentals course).
  • Familiarity with identity management and basic network security concepts, such as firewalls, VPNs, and encryption.
  • Experience working with Windows Server, Active Directory, and Azure Active Directory is beneficial but not required.

Learning Objectives

The AZ-500: Microsoft Azure Security Technologies course covers a comprehensive range of topics essential for securing Azure environments. Throughout the course, you will learn to:

  • Implement and manage Azure identity and access management (IAM): Configure Azure Active Directory, implement multi-factor authentication (MFA), and manage role-based access control (RBAC) to secure identities.
  • Secure cloud data and storage: Learn how to secure data using encryption, implement Azure Information Protection, and configure storage security options.
  • Configure network security in Azure: Understand how to implement network security solutions such as firewalls, virtual networks, DDoS protection, and network security groups.
  • Protect applications and workloads: Implement application security using Azure Security Center, Azure Sentinel, and other threat detection and response tools.
  • Monitor and respond to security incidents: Gain hands-on experience in using Azure Sentinel for security monitoring, detection, and incident response.

By the end of the course, you will have the expertise to implement comprehensive security solutions for Microsoft Azure and be well-prepared for the AZ-500 certification exam.
