Identity and governance are the foundation of secure Azure deployments. This module covers how to manage who accesses your resources (Microsoft Entra ID), what they're allowed to do (RBAC), and how to enforce policies at scale (Management Groups & Azure Policy).
Module 01 teaches you how to control access to Azure resources through identity and governance. You'll learn about Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) for managing users and groups, RBAC for granting permissions, and Management Groups with Azure Policy for governance at scale.
