FAQs

A SOC analyst is tasked with overseeing and protecting an organization’s information security infrastructure.

Their duties involve detecting, examining, and addressing cybersecurity threats.

Although this role might appear to demand significant experience, many essential skills can be acquired independently or through certifications and practical lab exercises.

Most Microsoft role-based and specialty certifications remain valid for one year after completing the SC-300 exam.

To retain your certification, you must renew it each year by completing a free online assessment available through Microsoft Learn.

The Microsoft SC-300 exam, which covers Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator topics, is generally considered moderately challenging.

According to industry feedback and experiences shared by professionals:

  • The exam demands a solid understanding of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), identity management, access control, and identity governance.
  • It requires practical, hands-on experience with configuring and managing identity and access solutions in Microsoft environments.
  • However, individuals with thorough preparation using official Microsoft documentation, practice tests, labs, and online learning resources typically find it manageable.

The SC-300 exam (Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator) can be rescheduled up to four times using the Pearson VUE portal.

After these four attempts, if you need to reschedule again, you must cancel and rebook the exam rather than reschedule it.

This is consistent with Microsoft’s certification policies for role-based exams.
