Controlling access to network resources is a vital security concern. Resource access is controlled first by authentication, then by specific permissions for authorized resource use. Physical security strategies allow controlled access to IT computing equipment at the user and server levels.
In this course, you will first list physical security strategies then determine how to harden specific systems and limit the use of USB removable media through Group Policy. Next, you will manage users and groups in Active Directory, Linux, and the AWS and Azure clouds. You’ll then configure multi-factor authentication (MFA) in AWS and Azure. Finally, you’ll define how identity federation works and enable access control through cloud-based RBAC roles and attribute-based access control.
This course is part of a collection that prepares you for the CompTIA Server+ SK0-005 certification exam.
