Microsoft Azure Security Engineer – AZ-500

The Microsoft Azure Security Engineer  exam is designed for IT professionals interested in building a career in Security Engineer. The Microsoft Azure Security Engineer exam validates your skills to secure data, applications, manage security operations, implement platform protection, and manage identity and its access. 

If you’re interested in learning more about Microsoft, then you’re ready to start preparing for your Azure certification exam. Register for our Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Certification training course (AZ-500).

Before taking the Microsoft Azure certification exam, you should feel confident in demonstrating your knowledge to a potential employer across these 5 core areas:

How confident are you with your knowledge in scripting, automation, virtualization, networking, and cloud architecture? Take our Azure Security Engineer knowledge quiz to validate your confidence going into the exam and/or applying for your next IT position.

There are two parts to getting ahead in the IT industry: hands-on experience and industry certifications. For many students, they are qualified for a position, but need extra support with exam strategies or exposure and practice to specific areas of Microsoft Azure that they haven’t been exposed to. This is where our certification-based curriculum comes in. Our technical classes provide the ideal blend of skills-based training and industry certification preparation so that you’re confident walking into both the exam booth and your next interview. Take our Azure Security course (AZ-500) to prepare for the exam.

The technical skills validated through the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer certification exam will help prepare you for IT career opportunities and will prepare you for a more technical role as a Security Engineer.

If you have no prior IT experience, and you’re planning out your IT career path, having a well-rounded skillset on servers running both Microsoft Azure and Amazon AWS cloud platforms provide the maximum career potential. Getting your foot in the door in IT HelpDesk or IT Support is a great way to get started, giving you access to supporting users running a variety of hardware and software technologies. As you start to build your training and exposure in server management and cloud administration, you’ll increase your problem-solving and troubleshooting skills and will be ready to start studying for the Azure certification exam.

Our full suite of career services support includes resume building, LinkedIn profile optimization, mock interview support, career coaching, and job placement support, and specialty workshops, to help ensure you’re positioned for success.
