Approach and methodology
Practical and structured approach combining focused theory and guided workshops. Participants gradually set up secure access to workloads using the Azure virtual network through real-world exercises inspired by real-world scenarios, promoting immediate application of learnings. They learn how to design secure network architectures, manage access, and protect resources in the cloud. Led by a Microsoft certified trainer, the training focuses on interactivity and the development of directly transferable technical skills to effectively secure Azure environments in a professional context.
