Azure Deep Dive
RCCE students will learn Microsoft Azure security including Azure Active Directory, Network Security Groups, Azure Sentinel, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Key Vault, Azure Policy, and managed identity security. RCCE students will learn to secure Azure environments using native security services, configure Azure AD conditional access and privileged identity management, design secure virtual network architectures, deploy and operate Azure Sentinel for security monitoring, implement Azure Policy for compliance enforcement, manage secrets and certificates with Key Vault, detect and remediate misconfigurations using Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and respond to security incidents in Azure environments. This deep-dive course provides comprehensive technical coverage that goes beyond surface-level understanding. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn to master the nuances, edge cases, and advanced configurations that separate competent practitioners from true experts. Students will engage with complex real-world scenarios and gain the depth of knowledge required to troubleshoot difficult situations, mentor junior team members, and make architectural decisions with confidence.
