SC-100 - Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect

Course Duration: 32 Hours

Delivery Methods: Classroom Training - Instructor Led or Online


COURSE OVERVIEW

This course prepares students with the background to design and evaluate cybersecurity strategies in the following areas: Zero Trust, Governance Risk Compliance (GRC), security operations (SecOps), and data and applications. Students will also learn how to design and architect solutions using zero trust principles and specify security requirements for cloud infrastructure in different service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS).


WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

IT professionals with advanced experience and knowledge in a wide range of security engineering areas, including identity and access, platform protection, security operations, securing data, and securing applications. They should also have experience with hybrid and cloud implementations.
