  • Connect data from Azure Entra to Azure Sentinel

After completing this Learning Path, students will be able to:

  • Manage and maintain Azure Entra from creation to solution
  • Use access reviews to maintain your Azure Entra
  • Grant access to users with entitlement management

Prerequisites

Before attending this course, students must have:

  • Understand security best practices and industry security requirements such as defense in depth, least privileged access, role-based access control, shared responsibility, and zero trust model.
  • Be familiar with identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Entra Domain Services, or other authentication providers.
  • Have some experience deploying Azure workloads. This course does not cover the basics of Azure administration, instead the course content builds on that knowledge by adding identity and security specific information.
  • Have experience with Windows and/or Linux operating systems and minor scripting language experience. This course touches on the use of PowerShell and the CLI.
