  • Understand 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.

Comments about the Instructor
"I loved that we had two instructors. It was great having two voices/opinions instead of just one person. I would definitely choose one class over another if I knew it had two instructors. Rick and Mike were great."

Comments about the Instructor
"Rick and Mike were fine as instructors. The paired instructor approach as unusual, and I felt the content delivered by Mike was extremely light, where it could have more depth. I'm here to learn about securing Azure resources and best practices, not on how to build a VM."
