Microsoft Azure Security Technologies Training (AZ-500T00)

How do you stay ahead of threats in a constantly evolving Azure security landscape? As cloud adoption grows, so does the need for professionals who can secure Microsoft Azure environments against increasingly complex threats. This course equips you to implement advanced security controls, manage identity and access, protect data and applications, and monitor security operations across hybrid and cloud-native infrastructure.

Designed for current or aspiring Azure Security Engineers, this training also prepares you for the AZ-500: Microsoft Azure Security Technologies certification. With immersive labs and real-world scenarios, you’ll gain the technical experience and confidence to manage security in Azure from the ground up.

This course builds on your Azure administration experience by focusing on security best practices, threat mitigation, and identity protection. You’ll gain the skills required to:

• Implement secure identity and access management solutions
• Configure platform protection for Azure compute and network
• Manage security operations using Microsoft Defender and Sentinel
• Secure data at rest and in transit across Azure workloads
• Monitor and remediate vulnerabilities to maintain security posture

This course is for Azure Security Engineers who are planning to take the associated certification exam, or who are performing security tasks in their day-to-day job. This course would also be helpful to an engineer that wants to specialize in providing security for Azure-based digital platforms and play an integral role in protecting an organization's data.

• Security best practices and industry security requirements such as defense in depth, least privileged access, role-based access control, multi-factor authentication, shared responsibility, and zero trust model.
• Be familiar with security protocols such as Virtual Private Networks (VPN), Internet Security Protocol (IPSec), Secure Socket Layer (SSL), disk and data encryption methods.
• Have some experience deploying Azure workloads. This course does not cover the basics of Azure administration, instead the course content builds on that knowledge by adding security specific information.
• Have experience with Windows and Linux operating systems and scripting languages. Course labs may use PowerShell and the CLI.
