Course Overview

Description:

This course teaches IT professionals how they can enhance the security of the IT infrastructure that they administer.

This course also details how you can mitigate malware threats, identify security issues by using auditing and the Advanced Threat Analysis feature in Windows Server 2016, secure your virtualization platform, and use new deployment options, such as Nano server and containers to enhance security.
