The AZ-500 exam tests your knowledge in four different subject areas, and that’s how this learning path is structured. We’ll start with Introduction to Cloud Computing, Cloud Computing with Azure. Next, we’ll get into managing identities and access and implementing platform protection, which will include topics like Network Security Groups, Azure Firewalls, and much more. You will then learn about managing security options using tools like Azure Monitor, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and Log Analytics. Rounding out the learning path, you’ll learn how to secure data and applications
