Identity with Windows Server Training

About the Training

The Identity with Windows Server Training offers an in-depth education on identity and access management within Windows Server. This training covers topics such as authentication and authorization, security principles, and identity management on Windows Server.

The training covers Windows Server’s identity and access management features, including user and group authentication and authorization, access policies, and more. Participants enhance their knowledge of identity and access management with Windows Server through real-world examples and projects.

The training also teaches the tools and technologies that can be used in the design and implementation of identity and access management solutions on Windows Server. Participants learn how to manage key features such as user authentication, group policies, access control, and security. Additionally, they understand how to design and implement identity and access management solutions with Windows Server.

The Identity with Windows Server Training covers all the fundamental aspects of designing and implementing Windows Server-based identity and access management solutions. Participants gain the essential skills needed before they start creating effective identity and access management solutions.

The training program begins with the basics of Windows Server topics. Participants learn fundamental concepts such as authentication, authorization, and security policies. They also gain insights into the role these concepts play in designing and implementing Windows Server-based identity and access management solutions. This knowledge forms the foundational building blocks that participants will need in the process of creating identity and access management solutions.

Finally, we provide information on how to develop an identity and access management solution based on Windows Server. This process includes designing the solution, conducting tests, and ultimately implementing the identity and access management solution on Windows Server. This knowledge helps participants successfully design and implement identity and access management solutions with Windows Server.

What Will You Learn?

As part of the Identity with Windows Server training, you will gain knowledge on the following topics:
  • Fundamental concepts, configuration methods, and best practices of Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
  • User accounts and authentication processes
  • Group Policy management and usage
  • User profiles, client settings, and Remote Access Services (RAS)
  • Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) and certificate management
  • Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) and authentication processes
  • Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) and file/data protection
  • Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) and application integration
  • Azure Active Directory and cloud-based identity management
  • Identity Management for Mobile Devices and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) scenarios
This training program provides you with detailed knowledge on identity management within the Windows Server operating system and equips you with the essential information needed to obtain the Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA) certification. It also offers IT professionals and network administrators an opportunity to learn up-to-date information and best practices for specializing in identity management.

Prerequisites

Before attending the Identity with Windows Server training, it is recommended to meet the following prerequisites:
  • Have a basic understanding of the Windows Server operating system
  • Have basic knowledge of the TCP/IP protocol
  • Be familiar with fundamental network management concepts and configuration methods
  • Have a basic understanding of Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
If you do not have sufficient knowledge in these areas, it is recommended to first take training in Windows Server or basic network management. Microsoft’s “Windows Server 2019 Essentials” training program can help you gain fundamental knowledge in these topics. Additionally, if you plan to obtain the MCSA certification, you will need to pass the core exams for MCSA: Windows Server 2016 or MCSA: Windows Server 2019 certifications. These exams cover topics related to the Windows Server operating system, network management, and Active Directory, and can serve as good preparation for the Identity with Windows Server training.

Who Should Attend?

The Identity with Windows Server training is designed for IT professionals, network administrators, system engineers, and security managers who wish to specialize in identity management. By participating in this training program, you can gain in-depth knowledge of Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), user accounts, authentication processes, group policy management, certificate management, federation services, rights management, and cloud-based identity management. The training covers the essential knowledge required for Microsoft’s MCSA (Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate) certification. Therefore, those who are working towards obtaining the MCSA certification or looking to renew their existing MCSA certification can benefit from this training. Additionally, since the training program is conducted on the Windows Server 2019 operating system, IT professionals and network administrators transitioning to Windows Server 2019 can also benefit from this training.
