Design, implement, and operate identity and access management systems using Azure AD.

Provide secure authentication and authorization access to enterprise applications.

Implement access and authentication for cloud-only and hybrid infrastructures.

The book is organized into five chapters, covering various aspects of identity and access management. In the first chapter, you will gain an overview of the SC-300 exam and its objectives. You will learn about the importance of identity and access management in modern computing environments and the role of Azure AD in providing secure identity and access services.

The second chapter focuses on designing and implementing identity and access management solutions using Azure AD. You will learn about the different identity and access management technologies available in Azure AD, such as Azure AD Connect, Azure AD Domain Services, and Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication. You will also explore the various identity management patterns and best practices, such as single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication.

In the third chapter, you will learn to provide secure authentication and authorization access to enterprise applications. You will explore the different authentication methods available in Azure AD, such as password-based authentication, certificate-based authentication, and federated authentication. You will also learn about the different authorization mechanisms available in Azure AD, such as role-based access control (RBAC) and attribute-based access control (ABAC).

The fourth chapter covers implementing access and authentication for cloud-only and hybrid infrastructures. You will learn about the different identity and access management solutions available for cloud-only environments, such as Azure AD and Microsoft 365. You will also explore the different authentication methods available for hybrid environments, such as hybrid identity federation and password hash synchronization.

The fifth chapter focuses on protecting cloud-only and hybrid infrastructures using the principles of zero trust. You will learn about the different security principles and best practices that can be used to secure identity and access management systems, such as identity-based security, micro-segmentation, and multi-factor authentication.

Throughout the book, you will find numerous examples and case studies that demonstrate the practical application of identity and access management solutions. These examples will help you understand the concepts and principles discussed in the book and will also provide you with the skills and knowledge to implement identity solutions in your own organizations.

In addition to the examples and case studies, the book also includes mock tests that are designed to help you prepare effectively for the Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator certification exam. These mock tests will provide you with a realistic exam experience and will help you identify areas where you need to improve your knowledge and skills.

By the end of this book, you will have gained a deep understanding of identity and access management principles and practices. You will be able to design, implement, and operate identity and access management systems using Azure AD, and you will be well-prepared to take the Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator certification exam.

Whether you are a seasoned IT professional or just starting your career in the field of identity and access management, this certification guide will provide you with the skills and knowledge you need to succeed.
