Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500): Manage Identity and Access

Intermediate 6.3 hours English Professional Certificate

About this course

Wayne Hoggett covers the 'Manage Identity and Access' domain of the AZ-500 (Azure Security Engineer Associate) certification: implementing secure identity solutions, services, and operations within Azure.

The honest take: this is exam-prep content for one specific domain, not a standalone introduction to Azure security — the course assumes Azure Fundamentals-level knowledge as a baseline. If you're new to Azure entirely, get your footing there first; if you're studying for AZ-500, this slots in as one module of several you'll need across Pluralsight's AZ-500 path.

What you'll learn

Implement and manage Azure identity solutions
Configure secure access controls and role-based access (RBAC)
Apply identity governance and access review practices in Azure
Prepare specifically for the Identity and Access domain of the AZ-500 exam
Understand how identity security fits into the broader AZ-500 certification scope
