Cybersecurity Identity and Access with Azure AD

Upon completing the first three courses of the Professional Certificate, you should have some foundational knowledge about computers, operating systems, networking, and cyberthreats, all of which put you in a good position to explore cybersecurity in greater detail. In this course, you’ll explore the world of authorization and authentication, and understand the concepts of two-step authentication and single sign-on policies. You’ll also become familiar with the features and capabilities of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), particularly those relating to the benefits of using Azure AD to manage an enterprise’s security requirements including access management, identity governance, and management. This course will take you one step closer to the Microsoft Cybersecurity Analyst Professional Certificate, which requires no degree or prior experience. After completing this course, you’ll be able to: • Explain the concept of Active Directory • Describe Authentication methods • Discuss access management This is also a great way to prepare for the Microsoft SC-900 exam. By passing the SC-900 exam, you’ll earn the Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals Certification
