Network Security Academy
Welcome to the Network Security Academy. Explore network security video sessions delivered directly to partners, detailed learning paths, certifications, and further resources.
Sessions
An introduction session for Azure Network Security, diving into the challenges of a more dangerous environment, zero trust principles & architecture, best practices, Azure Network Security's layered defenses, Network Security Groups (NSGs), Azure Bastion, connection to service endpoints, and how to establish private links.
In this session, become skilled in Azure Secure Hybrid Architecture, first-party service integration, and Azure Virtual Datacenter (VDC) Architecture. Additionally, explore Azure Firewall's influential capabilities with Web Apps, Private Endpoint Inspection, Azure Firewall for Virtual Desktop, and configuration for FTP support.
Successfully managing network security is a vital component of service protection, especially with an evolving threat environment and growing enterprise challenges. In this session, discover Azure Firewall's key benefits, supported SKUs (e.g., standard, premium, etc.) and their capabilities, Azure Firewall's Threat Intelligence, and Azure Firewall's Rules Processing Logic. Additionally, dive deeper into Azure Firewall Manager's core features, integration potential, and pricing, all paired with an extensive demo.
Acquire the skills necessary for a detailed understanding of Azure Firewall Premium's next generation capabilities. At a focus, learn about Azure Firewall Premium's Transport Layer Security (TLS) Inspection, Key Vault Integration, policies, Azure Firewall Manager, and further configurations with a brief demo.
Explore Azure Firewall Premium's powerful capabilities (e.g., TLS Inspection, URL Filtering, Web Categories) as a cloud native next-gen Firewall as a Service. At a focus, learn about Azure Firewall's Intrusion Detection & Prevention System (IDPS), policies, insights or analytics, followed by a comprehensive demo.
Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are some of the largest availability and security concerns facing customers. Azure DDoS Protection provides enhanced DDoS features, automatically protecting Azure resources in a virtual network. In this session, learn about the dangers of DDoS and Azure's answers to rising threats, including Azure DDoS Protection Standard's capabilities, setup, and operation (e.g., Adaptive Tuning, Mitigation Pipelines or Metrics, etc.).
