Description

Cloud technologies have made identity and access the new control plane for securing data. Without proper planning and discipline in deploying, monitoring, and managing identity and access for users, administrators, and guests, you may be compromising your infrastructure and data. This book is a preparation guide that covers all the objectives of the SC-300 exam, while teaching you about the identity and access services that are available from Microsoft and preparing you for real-world challenges. The book starts with an overview of the SC-300 exam and helps you understand identity and access management. As you progress to the implementation of IAM solutions, you’ll learn to deploy secure identity and access within Microsoft 365 and Azure Active Directory. The book will take you from legacy on-premises identity solutions to modern and password-less authentication solutions that provide high-level security for identity and access. You’ll focus on implementing access and authentication for cloud-only and hybrid infrastructures as well as understand how to protect them using the principles of zero trust. The book also features mock tests toward the end to help you prepare effectively for the exam. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to plan, deploy, and manage identity and access solutions for Microsoft and hybrid infrastructures.

If you are studying for the SC-300 or simply wanting to increase your knowledge about Microsoft Identity and Access Administration, I highly recommend this book as part of your learning journey.Dwayne has done an excellent job in explaining all the topics, making it easy to understand and has included helpful notes along the way. As well as all the necessary information to help you study for the SC-300 exam, the book contains screenshots, diagrams and detailed step by step instructions on how to configure the various elements of Microsoft Identity and Access Administration.Where necessary Dwayne has also included all the PowerShell commands that can be used instead of the GUI to complete the same task.I really enjoyed reading this bookI wish you the best of luck if you are studying for the SC-300 exam.

Especially if you are involved in any Azure AD or Identity related technology.Whether you’re are planning on taking the exam or not, this book will provide a foundational knowledge of the Azure Identity technology stack. Identity is the new perimeter and the most important protection to our environment is our Identity!As you look to deploy Zero Trust, Identity is foundational to this journey and Dwayne’s book emphasizes this as you read through to learn all the different components involved in Azure Identity Management.Thank you Dwayne for the great read. I truly appreciate the time and effort that goes into making the final product.

Whether you are preparing for the SC-300 exam from Microsoft, or simply wanting to build your skills in Microsoft Identity and Access Administration, this guide has something for everyone's skill level! Dwayne's book covers a wide area of expertise and includes the latest and greatest features in Conditional Access, FIDO2, Access reviews and entitlements, Privileged Identity Management, and includes a TON of best practices, recommendations for organization adoption, and how to ensure proper operationalization of Identity management as a whole. This guide is structured very well with instructions on a lab setup at the beginning of each chapter to ensure that you can follow along with the exercises (hands-on) to supplement the information shared and instructed in each chapter.Well thought out, well organized, and highly recommended read! I have repeatedly referenced this book since it has been in my collection and have recommended this book to many other professionals in this same IAM journey for knowledge. Buy this book now and consider buying copies for your colleagues to help them in their learning journeys as well!

Preparing for the SC-300 Identity and Access Administrator Exam is no easy task, and yet with the resources that Dwayne Natwick provides you through his discussions on topics like Conditional Access, Privileged Identity, Multi Factor, and many others that will leave you feeling a sense of confidence that you are armed with knowledge to tackle this important security topic.I mentor many IT professionals within the Microsoft Azure space, and when I have students that are looking to get into more Microsoft Security topics, Dwayne's book is an easy recommendation for me to make.

I've been an Azure guy for a few years now and have always stuck to online learning when studying for exams. For some reason, I felt the need to have a book in front of me this time while preparing for the SC-300 Exam. Well, I'm VERY HAPPY that I did. It was a BIGTIME HELP as a guide and reference for all required knowledge topics. The book also references the related MS Docs all the way through which is always a help. All of that said, this book is well organized, comfortable on the eyes and thorough. I passed the SC-300 today with an 850 score. Not too shabby! Highly Recommend!
