Loads of Knowledge

Active Directory Federation Services and Claims workshop is the best way to learn how to implement the most business oriented server role! Federated Identity and claims based applications are becoming more and more popular – they simplify the resource access both for your employees and business partners.

When the world becomes more focused on solving ‘Bring Your Own Device’ issues, it is time to become more up to date with the newest technology capabilities: Active Directory Federation Services and Active Directory Domain Services have been extended to comprehend the most popular mobile devices and provide conditional access and access policies. With these policies in place, you can control access based on users, devices, locations, and access times.

Come and learn how to establish partnerships with your business parties, how to implement Single Sign On to access corporate resources, how to manage access to devices and how to implement capabilities to work from anywhere in the world!

To get more practice we offer three extra weeks of labs online!

At the end of the course you will be able to

  • Design AD Federation Services infrastructure and identify the implementation requirements
  • Deploy AD Federation Services to provide claims-aware authentication in a single organization
  • Implement AD Federation Services high availability
  • Deploy Web Application Proxy (previous: AD Federation server proxy) to securely publish web applications
  • Deploy Device Registration Service to enable control of user devices
  • Deploy Claims-enabled ACLs on File Servers

Intense exercises:

The course focuses on implementation scenarios, including practice in the newest technologies and solutions delivered with Windows Server 2019.

This course is ideal for:

Enterprise administrators, infrastructure architects, security professionals, systems engineers, network administrators, IT professionals, security consultants and other people responsible for implementing network and perimeter security.

Platform and Technical Requirements:

To participate in the course you need a Stable internet connection. For the best learning experience we also need you to have a webcam, headphones and a microphone.

“All of their classes are based on their real world experience with the products, not just the typical Official Curriculum style classes that teach you things for an exam, but that you never use. You’ll find that all of the material you’ll lrarn in the class will be used, at some point, in your security career.”
