AZ-500 | Microsoft Azure Security Technologies

Certification Overview:

The Microsoft Azure AZ-500 exam is for the people who want to demonstrate or check their knowledge in deploying, installing, administering, and managing Azure cloud from security standpoint. You will be thoroughly tested for your knowledge and technical skills. It will take quite an effort and time to cover all the required domains of the course outline.

Exam Prerequisites:

If you are planning to attempt the Azure Security Engineer (AZ-500) exam, be sure to complete one of the following exams beforehand, as it will give you enough exposure to Azure services and offerings:

Official Learning Path:

AZ-500 : Azure Security Engineer Associate

Skills Measured: This exam test you on the following topics:

Domain 1: Manage Identity and Access (30-35%)

1.1 Manage Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) identities

1.2 Manage secure access by using Azure AD

1.3 Manage application access

1.4 Manage access control

Domain 2: Implement platform protection (15-20%)

2.1 Implement advanced network security

2.2 Configure advanced security for compute

Domain 3: Manage Security Operations (25-30%)

3.1 Configure centralized policy management

3.2 Configure and manage threat protection

3.3 Configure and manage security monitoring solutions

Domain 4: Secure Data and Applications (25-30%)

4.1 Configure security for storage

4.2 Configure security for databases

4.3 Configure and manage Key Vault

Recommendations:

I would recommend a very good knowledge and hands on experience on the Azure cloud especially from the IAM perspective. It will help you a lot in understanding the requirements and needs asked in the exam questions.

Practice, Practice, Practice!! This will save you.

Take it easy, read the question slowly (2-3 times, if required) and understand the specific need.

This exam is not that easy when it is compared with other Azure exams, but you will sail through it; if you are focused and pay enough attention towards the requirements in the exam questions. 

I hope this will be helpful and encouraging!!

Best of luck!!
