SC-100: Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect

This course is for experienced cloud security engineers who have passed a previous certification in the security, compliance and identity portfolio. Specifically, students should have advanced experience and knowledge in a wide range of security engineering areas, such as identity and access, platform protection, security operations, data protection, and application protection. They should also have experience with cloud and hybrid deployments. Instead, beginning students should take course SC-900: Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals.
