What you'll learn

Microsoft Azure is accessible from all around the world, giving you the flexibility to manage your Azure resources from everywhere. As a consequence, your Azure environment is under constant attack, making it important to exert tight control over who can access your cloud environment, and who cannot. In this course, Azure IAM Core Concepts, you’ll gain the ability to design and implement an Identity and Access management solution for your Azure environment. First, you’ll explore how to set up authentication for users and service principals in Entra ID and configure conditional access policies. Next, you’ll discover how to configure authorization within Entra ID. Finally, you’ll learn how to configure authorization in your Azure environment using the Azure Role-Based Access Control system. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge needed to work with Entra ID and Microsoft Azure to configure authentication and authorization for your cloud environment.
