Get started with Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals exam (SC-900)

“

- Hello and welcome. This video session is intended to familiarize you with the core skills and understanding of the security, identity, and compliance cloud-based services offered by Microsoft to prepare you for the SC-900 exam. My name's Chris Wojahn. I'm currently working for Microsoft, CSS, or what most known as customer support services organization, covering the readiness for our teams responsible for the security, compliance, identity, now known as Entra, and management teams. Our members deal with the full breadth of the products and services from installation, configuration through incident management, and mitigation or response. The lessons that follow are intended to serve as an overview of the concepts and fundamentals at the level that will target a broad scope of community members from entry level students through SOC analysts and many in between. It's important to have a solid familiarity with the Microsoft Azure Services discussed and Microsoft 365 compliance capabilities to be able to discuss and explain to others the full solution needed to secure an environment to the best of your ability. If you're able to converse and debate this content, then the exam should be easy next step in your journey. Taking time for the hands-on activities and test driving the services will help to ensure your familiarity with the subjects that are discussed. The SC-900 exam validation of learning focuses on the following weighted areas, describing the concepts of security and compliance, and identity. This is 10 to 15% of the exam. Describing the capabilities of Microsoft Entra or Azure AD. This is 25 to 30% of the exam. Then describing the capabilities of the Microsoft Security solutions. This is 25 to 30% of the exam. And lastly, describing the capabilities of Microsoft compliance solutions. This is also 25 to 30% of the exam. So again, we will begin with establishing a baseline understanding of the concepts at hand, looking at how security, identity, and compliance compliment each other in building the core structure of capabilities to serve, identify, and respond to the common concerns of today's infrastructure. Well, are you ready? If so, let's begin our wander and explore these concepts further.
