The SC-100: Microsoft Certified Cybersecurity Architect Expert Exam Prep Specialization is designed for senior security professionals and architects seeking to master end-to-end cybersecurity design with Microsoft technologies.
This specialization equips learners with skills to:
Design security operations with Microsoft Sentinel as a SIEM + SOAR.
Build identity-first architectures using Microsoft Entra ID, Conditional Access, and PAM.
Apply compliance and governance solutions using Microsoft Purview and Defender for Cloud.
Implement Zero Trust, DevSecOps, and multi-cloud security strategies.
The specialization is divided into four key courses:
Design solutions with security best practices and priorities
Design security operations, identity, and compliance capabilities
Design security solutions for infrastructure
Design security solutions for applications and data
Each course is structured into Modules, Lessons, and Video Lectures, and supported with practice activities, graded assignments, and quizzes that reinforce learning and prepare you for the SC-100 exam.
This specialization aims to achieve the Microsoft Certified: Cybersecurity Architect Expert credential, validating your ability to design enterprise-wide security strategies across applications, identity, infrastructure, and compliance.
Applied Learning Project
Throughout this specialization, learners will work on hands-on projects that simulate real-world cybersecurity challenges, such as:
Designing a Zero Trust architecture for a hybrid cloud enterprise.
Building an identity access strategy with Conditional Access, RBAC, and MFA.
Configuring Microsoft Sentinel to detect and respond to multi-cloud threats.
Implementing compliance controls using Purview and sensitivity labeling for data governance.
Developing an application security design integrating DevSecOps practices, Defender for Cloud, and data protection policies.
These projects ensure participants can apply architectural security principles across real-world enterprise scenarios, preparing them for both the SC-100 exam and lead cybersecurity architect roles.
