Microsoft SC-300 Identity and Access Administrator
 
The role of a Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator involves designing, implementing, and managing an organization’s identity and access management systems using Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), a key component of Microsoft Entra. This entails configuring and overseeing authentication and authorization processes for users, devices, Azure resources, and applications.

In addition to providing users with seamless experiences and self-service management capabilities, identity and access administrators ensure that identity verification aligns with Zero Trust principles.

Furthermore, they are responsible for troubleshooting, monitoring, and reporting within the identity and access environment.

Collaborating with various organizational roles, identity and access administrators drive strategic identity projects, modernize solutions, implement hybrid identity solutions, and oversee identity governance.
