About

Capstone and Practice Exam is the seventh course in the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate Professional Certificate training program. It allows you to apply the skills gained from the previous six courses and prepare for the AZ-500 exam. The course starts with a recap of courses 1 to 6, followed by a real-world capstone project. You will complete the tasks typically performed by an Azure security engineer and then submit the project for peer review. Then, you will evaluate other project submissions and discuss solutions with peers.
