0:00:07.600000 --> 0:00:12.560000
 Hi, I'd like to take a couple minutes
 to go over what's going to be in

0:00:12.560000 --> 0:00:16.380000
 this course, Azure Security Managing
 Identity and Access.

0:00:16.380000 --> 0:00:20.900000
 This course is aligned with the Microsoft
 Certification Exam, AZ 500,

0:00:20.900000 --> 0:00:26.380000
 which if you pass it will earn you the
 Microsoft Certified, Azure Security

0:00:26.380000 --> 0:00:28.140000
 Engineer Associate.

0:00:28.140000 --> 0:00:31.880000
 They are trying to make these titles
 longer and longer, but in any case,

0:00:31.880000 --> 0:00:34.820000
 let's just take a few minutes to
 talk about what's in the course.

0:00:34.820000 --> 0:00:38.680000
 First of all, I'm Tracy Wallace and
 if I don't need to see two visions

0:00:38.680000 --> 0:00:45.240000
 of me there, I am an Azure Solutions
 Architect Expert as well as an Azure,

0:00:45.240000 --> 0:00:49.980000
 a Microsoft Certified, Azure
 Security Engineer Associate.

0:00:49.980000 --> 0:00:53.980000
 And I've got tons of other certifications
 because I've been doing this

0:00:53.980000 --> 0:00:57.060000
 for a very long time,
 thus the gray hair.

0:00:57.060000 --> 0:01:01.840000
 You can reach out to me if you want,
 email on Twitter or on LinkedIn.

0:01:01.840000 --> 0:01:05.700000
 Glad to hear from you and if you have
 questions, please don't hesitate.

0:01:05.700000 --> 0:01:09.220000
 All right, now let's talk about
 what we're going to talk about.

0:01:09.220000 --> 0:01:13.200000
 So the course topics, in this course,
 we're going to cover four primary

0:01:13.200000 --> 0:01:17.020000
 topic areas. We're going to look
 at Azure AD configurations.

0:01:17.020000 --> 0:01:21.440000
 So just really setting up Azure AD, managing
 Azure AD objects, using some

0:01:21.440000 --> 0:01:25.860000
 of the features of Azure AD such as
 privilege identity management, which

0:01:25.860000 --> 0:01:28.260000
 is actually the next topic area.

0:01:28.260000 --> 0:01:30.800000
 We're also going to look at one of my
 favorite topics, which is application

0:01:30.800000 --> 0:01:32.580000
 identities in Azure AD.

0:01:32.580000 --> 0:01:36.660000
 The purpose of Azure AD is to provide
 authentication and identity services,

0:01:36.660000 --> 0:01:41.840000
 but not just for Azure, really for potentially
 any cloud-based application.

0:01:41.840000 --> 0:01:43.180000
 So we'll take a look at that.

0:01:43.180000 --> 0:01:46.240000
 And then we'll look a little bit at some
 things you can do from a subscription

0:01:46.240000 --> 0:01:51.300000
 security standpoint, things like moving
 a subscription from one account

0:01:51.300000 --> 0:01:54.260000
 to another or from one Azure
 AD tenant to another.

0:01:54.260000 --> 0:02:01.340000
 Now this course aligns with the AZ500
 certification exam, as I mentioned.

0:02:01.340000 --> 0:02:04.000000
 Now when I say the lines with what that
 means and what our goal is with

0:02:04.000000 --> 0:02:08.760000
 these, if you haven't heard any of
 these before, is that we align with

0:02:08.760000 --> 0:02:15.160000
 the exam objectives, but we are not explicitly
 an exam preparation course.

0:02:15.160000 --> 0:02:16.880000
 That's not what we're
 looking to do here.

0:02:16.880000 --> 0:02:18.760000
 We want to make you an expert.

0:02:18.760000 --> 0:02:23.940000
 So my goal is to give you the information
 you need to really be an expert

0:02:23.940000 --> 0:02:27.960000
 on the topic. And as long as those topics
 align with the exam objectives,

0:02:27.960000 --> 0:02:32.060000
 that should do a pretty good job
 of preparing you for the exam.

0:02:32.060000 --> 0:02:37.540000
 Now by and large, this course aligns
 with the first objective domain of

0:02:37.540000 --> 0:02:40.260000
 the exam, which is to manage
 identity and access.

0:02:40.260000 --> 0:02:45.320000
 Now there's a few topics here and there
 which aren't exactly aligned,

0:02:45.320000 --> 0:02:48.640000
 but in terms of going across the different
 courses, but by and large,

0:02:48.640000 --> 0:02:53.280000
 they're pretty well aligned
 with these exam objectives.

0:02:53.280000 --> 0:02:57.900000
 Now here are the actual exam objectives
 for this objective domain.

0:02:57.900000 --> 0:03:01.400000
 And I'm not going to go through all
 of these, but you can see the big

0:03:01.400000 --> 0:03:06.280000
 picture one. So manage Azure Active
 Directory identities, again, things

0:03:06.280000 --> 0:03:12.740000
 like groups and users, and also hybrid
 password management and hybrid

0:03:12.740000 --> 0:03:15.060000
 identity management.

0:03:15.060000 --> 0:03:19.680000
 Securing access using Azure AD, so privileged
 identity management using

0:03:19.680000 --> 0:03:25.860000
 conditional access and MFA, multi-factor
 authentication, manage application

0:03:25.860000 --> 0:03:29.820000
 access, as I said, registering applications,
 assigning the appropriate

0:03:29.820000 --> 0:03:34.560000
 permissions for those applications,
 and also granting consent for those.

0:03:34.560000 --> 0:03:38.320000
 And then also kind of tied into that,
 another, to me, very cool topic,

0:03:38.320000 --> 0:03:41.740000
 which is securing the Azure API.

0:03:41.740000 --> 0:03:45.600000
 So the actual way that you interact
 with Azure, whether it's through the

0:03:45.600000 --> 0:03:50.020000
 portal or through one of the command
 lines, or really this goes to the

0:03:50.020000 --> 0:03:53.660000
 very base level, the rest
 API, and we cover that.

0:03:53.660000 --> 0:03:55.260000
 And then we have access control.

0:03:55.260000 --> 0:03:59.420000
 So we're going to talk about permissions,
 and you see subscription and

0:03:59.420000 --> 0:04:01.500000
 resource and resource
 group permissions.

0:04:01.500000 --> 0:04:07.200000
 We'll look at customizing role-based
 access control roles, and how to

0:04:07.200000 --> 0:04:11.960000
 identify them, and how to make sure
 you've got the right roles assigned

0:04:11.960000 --> 0:04:13.400000
 to the right people.

0:04:13.400000 --> 0:04:21.360000
 Now, this course does assume that you
 have the basics of Azure already

0:04:21.360000 --> 0:04:25.260000
 in hand. So Azure Fundamentals, and ideally
 also some Azure Administration.

0:04:25.260000 --> 0:04:29.700000
 Those are really what we're looking at
 in terms of prerequisites for this

0:04:29.700000 --> 0:04:33.700000
 course. If you don't have either of
 those, we have lots of videos that

0:04:33.700000 --> 0:04:35.320000
 I need that can help
 you out with that.

0:04:35.320000 --> 0:04:37.320000
 So that's what's in this course.

0:04:37.320000 --> 0:04:38.380000
 Thank you for joining me.

0:04:38.380000 --> 0:04:39.420000
 I hope you get a lot out of it.
