Lab Guide

About the Book

In today’s world defending against attacks that originate from both inside and outside your organization is critical. Unfortunately, threat actors are preying on organizations lagging with their Cyber Security defenses and becoming easy targets. In the lab guide, we will walk you through configuring Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection to protect against Malware and Ransomware attacks. This will include live simulated attacks via PowerShell and testing tools. Then we will turn our focus to Securing Cloud bases resources with Microsoft’s Defender for Cloud. The elements of this book will give a fundamental understanding and help you close the front door, so the bad guys can’t just walk in.
