Hello there🥰!!!
Are you looking for a First-Time Microsoft Azure Certified Cloud Security Analyst😉?
Look no further, I am over here☺️!
This feels good to say💅🏾, but the journey was not so smooth🥺.
I started my cybersecurity journey in 2021 when I went for my engineering internship. This year, I decided to be more intentional and active in my training to become a cloud security engineer.
All journeys have ups and downs, wins, losses, and mistakes. Today, I am sharing a bit about the journey to writing this Microsoft Azure professional exam🤗.
Studying On Microsoft AZ-900
✅First, I learned the basics of cybersecurity, Linux, ITIL, IAM, and Windows Operating Systems.
✅I learned about the general concepts of cloud security before diving into one of the cloud providers, Azure.
✅I took the Microsoft Az-900 course on Microsoft Learn, which is free for everyone. While studying, I majored in Cloud Concepts, Services, and Governance. When I finished the course, I took the practice questions repeatedly.
✅While taking the practice questions provided by Microsoft, I checked the answers they brought out and read their reasons. This helped me strengthen my knowledge of the topics and concepts.
Preparing For the Microsoft AZ-900 Professional Exam
✅Take the free practice questions provided by Microsoft AZ-900. Also, you can do further research on ONLY the topics taught in the course. Other things won’t come out, I promise you😤.
✅You can check out my cloud security trainer’s page, Janet Njoku. She has tips on passing the exam.
✅Register for your exam. There is a fee to writing this exam, but I can’t relate😉🤣 since CyberSafe Foundation proudly sponsored me 😉💅🏾.
✅When you have registered for your exam and chosen a date. You will be sent a mail with guidelines on things to do and not to do.
General Study Tips
✅Ensure you jot down while studying. While studying, I only jotted for the first module (Cloud Concepts), and this reflected in my results as I got 95% in the cloud concepts while I got 72% and 68% in cloud services and cloud governance.
✅When you read the material, it is like you just read it once. When you jot, your brain tries to recollect, reinforcing the information in your memory.
