Who Should Take Azure Security Engineer Associate Training?
This Azure Security Engineer Associate training is considered associate-level Microsoft training, which means it was designed for security engineers. This Azure security services skills course is valuable for new IT professionals with at least a year of experience with Azure and experienced security engineers looking to validate their Microsoft skills.
New or aspiring security engineers. If you’re a new security engineer, or you have hopes to become one, this training can help you focus and specialize your knowledge and experience in the direction of Microsoft Azure services. Providing security on the cloud, and specifically to Microsoft Azure products, means knowing how to handle security alerts, baselines, policies and configurations for many specific tools — all of which this training can prepare you for.
Experienced security engineers. If you’ve been working as a security engineer for several years, you might worry that associate-level training and certification may be beneath you. But you’d be mistaken: configuring security for Azure services has many complicated nuances that are often foreign to anyone without specific training. With this training you’ll validate any parts of the job you haven’t been exposed to yet and spring forward to bigger challenges with a firm foundation underneath you.
