introduction
Get Your Head in the Clouds!
Have you found yourself in a job role needing to attack or defend Azure architecture? Has your fast-paced organization moved to the cloud while leaving security to catch up? Azure: Security Fundamentals cuts through the fog of the cloud by building participants’ understanding of Azure’s infrastructure components, common architecture designs, and security controls in the context of the attacker lifecycle. Through hands-on labs, this course also teaches participants how to identify misconfigurations in Azure that are commonly leveraged by attackers. Participants should expect to walk away from Azure: Security Fundamentals with a strong foundation of Azure security knowledge and first step on their journey of attacking or defending corporate Azure environments.

Overview
Organizations are increasingly adopting cloud-based infrastructure for some or all of its corporate production network. Microsoft’s Azure provides organizations with the ability to deploy cloud hosts and services to augment or replace existing functionality. More cloud resources implemented means more cloud resources needing protecting, through defensive or offensive security, but understanding how these new technologies work and the nuances of securing them can quickly become complicated.
Azure Security Fundamentals aims to provide participants without previous Azure experience with a solid foundational understanding of Microsoft Azure, its common architectures, its authentication mechanisms, and how adversaries commonly attack Azure-based environments.
Training Participants
