Overview of this book

Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect Exam Ref SC-100 is a comprehensive guide that will help cybersecurity professionals design and evaluate the cybersecurity architecture of Microsoft cloud services. Complete with hands-on tutorials, projects, and self-assessment questions, you’ll have everything you need to pass the SC-100 exam. This book will take you through designing a strategy for a cybersecurity architecture and evaluating the governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) of the architecture. This will include cloud-only and hybrid infrastructures, where you’ll learn how to protect using the principles of zero trust, along with evaluating security operations and the overall security posture. To make sure that you are able to take the SC-100 exam with confidence, the last chapter of this book will let you test your knowledge with a mock exam and practice questions. By the end of this book, you’ll have the knowledge you need to plan, design, and evaluate cybersecurity for Microsoft cloud and hybrid infrastructures, and pass the SC-100 exam with flying colors.

Specifying security requirements for containers

Containers have become a critical compute component used for modernizing applications to utilize the resiliency, elasticity, and flexibility benefits of cloud technologies. Containers run on hosts where Microsoft provides security monitoring. As a cybersecurity architect, you need to secure the computing resources and the code within the container registry to avoid vulnerabilities and potential threats. Some of the baseline requirements that you should consider are as follows:

  • Since containers are an isolated, lightweight portion of a compute host with a host operating system used to run the application, the protection of the API and services for the application, as well as the runtime services, should be hardened and protected.
  • You should ensure that access and authorization to the container utilizes the principles of least privilege to decrease the attack surface.
  • Containers use images of multiple layers, and each layer...
