This course teachesIT professionals how to integrate their on-premises AD DS environment withAzure AD and how to use Azure AD as a directory service. It also teachescandidates how to use Azure RMS to protect sensitive documents. Additionally,it focusses on how to enhance authentication with multi-factor authenticationand how to monitor directory synchronization health.

After completing this course, students will be able to:

• Compare Azure AD to AD DS, perform Azure AD tenant provisioning, and manage objects and user roles in Azure AD.
• Implement and configure directory synchronization and manage synchronized directories.
• Use Azure AD as a directory service for an on-premises environment, configure single sign-on (SSO) in Azure AD, and protect privileged identities.
• Implement multi-factor authentication.
• Implement Azure RMS and integrate Azure RMS with on-premises services.
• Configure alerts and monitor directory services infrastructure.

The primary audiencefor this course is existing IT professionals who have some knowledge andexperience with Azure, and advanced experience with the Windows Serveroperating system. In addition, IT professionals who take this course typicallywant to develop knowledge of identity services integration between on-premisesservices and cloud services. This would typically include:

• AD DS administrators who are looking to train in cloud identity and access technologies.
• System or infrastructure administrators with general AD DS experience and knowledge, who are looking for more advanced identity training for Azure services.

In addition to their professionalexperience, students who attend this training should already have the followingtechnical knowledge:

• Experience with AD DS concepts and technologies in Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2016.
• Experience working with and configuring Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2016.
• Basic experience with Windows PowerShell.
• Basic experience with cloud services such as Microsoft Office 365.
• Basic experience with the Azure platform.
• Basic experience with identities on premises or in cloud.
