Introduction:
This certification is valuable for students, business professionals, and IT experts, offering a comprehensive understanding of various cybersecurity topics. It serves as a fundamental certification that acts as a stepping stone towards specialised certifications in security operations, identity and access management, and information protection.

This course provides a foundational level of expertise in security, compliance, and identity concepts, specifically focusing on Microsoft solutions in the cloud. The course is designed to familiarise the target audience with the fundamental principles of security, compliance, and identity (SCI) within cloud-based environments and Microsoft services.
Prerequisites:

Additionally, having practical experience in security, compliance, or identity-related roles can be beneficial for a better understanding of the exam content.
However, individuals from various backgrounds, such as students, business professionals, or IT enthusiasts, can pursue this certification without any specific prior experience or qualifications.
