Description
Pathway to Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect equips you with essential skills to design and implement resilient cybersecurity solutions that protect against today’s most pressing threats. This course covers critical areas such as developing strategies for ransomware resilience, aligning with security best practices, and supporting business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. You’ll learn to design secure backup and restore solutions, prioritize BCDR, and safeguard privileged access—key steps in building a robust defense against potential cyber incidents.
You’ll explore the Microsoft Cybersecurity Reference Architecture (MCRA) and Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark (MCSB) to design solutions that meet enterprise security needs. Learn to build strategies for Zero Trust security, using Microsoft’s Zero Trust Rapid Modernization Plan (RaMP) to protect against insider, external, and supply chain threats. You’ll also discover how to structure security and governance in line with the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) and Azure Well-Architected Framework, ensuring that your designs are tailored to support organizational growth and resiliency goals.
This course emphasizes security operations and identity management, covering advanced topics like SIEM and XDR for detection and response, central logging and auditing, and threat detection using MITRE ATT&CK matrices. You’ll gain skills in configuring Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR, allowing you to design proactive incident response and threat hunting workflows that enhance your security posture.
Identity and access management (IAM) is another focus, with strategies for modern authentication, authorization, and secure external identities. You’ll learn to design solutions using Microsoft Entra ID, support B2B/B2C and decentralized identity needs, and align Conditional Access policies with Zero Trust principles. Additionally, this course dives into privileged access security, from Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to secure administration in multicloud environments.
Finally, this course addresses data security and regulatory compliance. You’ll evaluate solutions for Microsoft 365, manage compliance with Microsoft Purview, and design policies to meet privacy requirements. By the end of this pathway, you’ll be prepared to architect security solutions for diverse infrastructure and application environments, applying Microsoft technologies to create comprehensive, resilient, and scalable security strategies across your organization.
