You need a model for security and compliance in the cloud. Most people toggle a few switches that say security related and then believe they're secured their data. Nothing could be further from the truth. This book provides guidance on what to focus on when designing or implementing cloud services.

This is the 3rd book from Dwayne I have had the pleasure of reading to help me with my certification journey and once again he has delivered on what is another informative and easy to follow guide to help me pass my SC-100 exam!It has a great mixture of theory, diagrams, labs and a detailed end of book test which I found really helpful in testing my understanding of the topic. Dwayne does not use a lot of 'IT jargon' in the book keeps the language simple and very easy to follow and digest.Thanks Dwayne!

Do not let the size of this book fool you - this book covers EVERYTHING that you need to know both for the SC-100 exam as well as for an overview of what tools are available from the Microsoft Security stack! This resource is filled with architectural designs and recommendations, best practices, tips and benchmarks to being you up to speed no matter what level of experience you are starting from!This book is incredibly well-written and was clearly directed to cover exacting and concise details on services, giving just the right amount of knowledge needed to be effective. The walkthroughs and hands-on were a little few and far between, however, this exam is targeted at whether you understand which tool to use when and not necessarily how to implement and integrate services.I especially liked the case studies throughout the book - makes you think about what you have learned and how you can apply the learnings to achieve a design/solution. Great job on the quiz at the end! I definitely recommend this book as a go-to for anyone seeking to get more familiar with Cybersecurity within the Microsoft Cloud and especially for those seeking to pass the SC-100 exam! Keep up the solid work, Dwayne!

I spend most of my job designing Microsoft 365 security solutions, which always left me feeling like I had a gap in my Azure knowledge for the SC-200. You need both to get through the exam, and this book helps bridge that for me. It's an architecture exam ("how would you design this?"), rather than an engineering exam ("which button would you click?"), which this book handles very well through case studies that make you think, rather than just trying to memorize a bunch of settings. Supplemented by some trial M365 and Azure licenses to test out your learning in a lab, this is great for anyone doing the SC-200.

William M. Wheeler Mar 24, 2023

I'm 2 for 2 passing Microsoft exams after reading books written by Dwane Natwick! This exam is more "wide" than "deep" in that you need to know the products and the practices that are applicable but you don't need to know how to implement them. Dwayne presents the information in a way that makes it easy to understand (and remember). He also provides links and pointers to other resources that may be useful if you want to delve a little deeper (like the Microsoft Cybersecurity Reference Architecture). Great book - highly recommended.
