Overview of this book

Security in information technology has always been a topic of discussion, one that comes with various backgrounds, tools, responsibilities, education, and change! The SC-200 exam comprises a wide range of topics that introduce Microsoft technologies and general operations for security analysts in enterprises. This book is a comprehensive guide that covers the usefulness and applicability of Microsoft Security Stack in the daily activities of an enterprise security operations analyst. Starting with a quick overview of what it takes to prepare for the exam, you'll understand how to implement the learning in real-world scenarios. You'll learn to use Microsoft's security stack, including Microsoft 365 Defender, and Microsoft Sentinel, to detect, protect, and respond to adversary threats in your enterprise. This book will take you from legacy on-premises SOC and DFIR tools to leveraging all aspects of the M365 Defender suite as a modern replacement in a more effective and efficient way. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to plan, deploy, and operationalize Microsoft's security stack in your enterprise and gained the confidence to pass the SC-200 exam.

Summary

In summary, there is a lot to know! It may seem overwhelming if you're new to the Microsoft 365 stack, but as you start learning one area, you'll see how well it translates to other areas, so I advise you to go with the flow and stick with it. As you work through understanding MDE, you'll leave with a great understanding of navigating through the security portal, making it easier to pick up knowledge in other areas.

As Microsoft builds out the Security.Microsoft.com portal, you'll find it easier to start digging into the other areas, such as Defender for Office and Defender for Identity.

With the knowledge you have picked up in those first few sections, moving into Sentinel will be a familiar one, as you continue to build on the nomenclature. With KQL, you'll be able to apply that in any portal where advanced hunting is available, as well as any Log Analytics workspace.

We're both excited to get started on the next chapter to continue your Microsoft 365 Defender adventure! See you in Chapter 2, The Evolution of Security Operations!
