This course is intended for IT professionals who are interested in learning how to manage access and authentication, using Azure AD. To get the most from this course, you should have at least a basic understanding of authentication concepts and of Azure Active Directory.
Throughout this course, we'll cover topics such as designing an authentication method and how to configure multi-factor authentication. We'll also cover self-service password reset, and how to enable it in an Azure subscription. While we're at it, we'll work through some live demonstrations.
Next, we'll cover authentication monitoring. You'll learn how to access sign-in reports in the Azure AD portal and how to use those reports to monitor Azure Active Directory.
Later, we'll work through some additional demonstrations that will teach you how to implement multi-factor authentication and how to manage multifactor authentication for end users. We'll also cover Azure multi-factor authentication reports.
After covering multi-factor authentication, we'll take a look at how application access is configured in Azure Active Directory. We'll work through the process of configuring application registration in Azure AD, as well as how to configure Azure AD application proxy.
Rounding out the course, we'll touch on Azure Active Directory B2B and how to add guest users to your directory, using the Azure portal.
By the time you complete this course, you'll understand how to manage access and authentication in Microsoft Azure. We’d love to get your feedback on this course, so please give it a rating when you’re finished.
