*Please Note - this exam will be retired on 31st July 2023 . The replacement exam is MS-102: Microsoft 365 Administrator and this became available on 3rd May 2023
This course covers three central elements of Microsoft 365 enterprise administration - Microsoft 365 Security Management, Microsoft 365 Compliance Management and Microsoft 365 Device Management. In Microsoft 365 Security Management you will examine all the common types of threat vectors and data breaches facing organisations today and you will learn how Microsoft 365's security solutions address these security threats. This course will also introduce you to the Microsoft Secure Score, as well as to Azure Active Directory Identity Protection. You will then learn how to manage the Microsoft 365 security services including Exchange Online Protection, Advanced Threat Protection, Safe Attachments and Safe Links. Finally, you will be introduced to the carious reports that monitor your security health. You will then transition from security services to threat intelligence, specifically using the Security Dashboard and Advanced Threat Analytics to stay ahead of potential security breaches.
With your Microsoft 365 security components now firmly in place, you will examine the key components of Microsoft 365 compliance management. This begins with an overview of all key aspects of data governance, including data archiving and retention, Information Rights Management, Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (S/MIME), Office 365 message encryption and data loss prevention (DLP). You will then delve deeper into archiving and retention, paying particular attention to in-place records management in SharePoint, archiving and retention in Exchange and Retention policies in the Security and Compliance Center.
Now that you understand the key aspects of data governance, you will examine how to implement them, including the building of ethical walls in Exchange Online, creating DLP policies from built-in templates, creating custom DLP policies, creating DLP policies to protect documents and creating policy tips. You will then focus on managing data governance in Microsoft 365 including managing retention in email, troubleshooting retention policies and policy tips that fail, as well as troubleshooting sensitive data. You will then learn how to implement Azure Information Protection and Windows Information Protection.
You will conclude this section by learning how to manage search and investigation, including searching for content in the Security and Compliance Center, auditing log investigations and managing advanced eDiscovery. The course concludes with an in-depth examination of Microsoft 365 Device Management. You will begin by planning for carious aspects of device management, including preparing your Windows 10 devices for co-management. You will learn how to transition from Configuration Manager to Intune and you will be introduced to the Microsoft Store for Business and Mobile Applications Management. At this point, you will transition from planning to implementing device management, specifically, your Windows 10 development strategy. This includes learning how to implement Windows Autopilot, Windows Analytics and Mobile Device Management (MDM). When examining MBM, you will learn how to deploy it, how to enroll devices to MSM and how to manage device compliance.
