Microsoft: Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals

Real-world use case

To advise my clients on Microsoft security and compliance, I took the Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals certification.

The "Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals" training path is designed for IT professionals in charge of deploying and securing cloud resources. The course catalog covers the following modules:

• Describe security, compliance, and identity concepts
• Describe the capabilities of Microsoft Entra
• Describe the capabilities of Microsoft security solutions
• Describe the capabilities of Microsoft compliance solutions

The training takes about 3 days. You should then allow around 1h00 for the certification exam itself: Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals.

Conclusion

This Microsoft course covers security, compliance, and identity management concepts, as well as the main associated Microsoft solutions (Entra, security, and compliance). It complements the Azure fundamentals already acquired by providing a broader view of protecting Microsoft environments. A useful certification for any professional in charge of securing cloud resources.
