Preface

Microsoft 365 is a productivity and collaboration platform designed to help you achieve more with a mix of innovative, intelligent cloud services and intuitive apps. It includes several integrated Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, including Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and Microsoft Teams, as well as security and data governance products.

The Microsoft 365 platform suite is used by millions of users and businesses every day to enhance communications, build relationships, connect communities, and create new experiences.

This book, Microsoft 365 Administrator Exam MS-102 Guide, has been designed from the ground up to help you learn how to administer the Microsoft 365 platform effectively.

This book will focus on the following key exam areas:

  • Provisioning a Microsoft tenant with domains, users, and groups
  • Configuring features like multi-factor authentication and administrative roles
  • Deploying Microsoft 365 Defender security products
  • Investigating and resolving threats across Microsoft 365 workloads
  • Configuring compliance and data governance capabilities

The MS-102 exam tests you on the core tasks to get a Microsoft 365 tenant up and running, including adding domains and configuring identity synchronization with Active Directory. Approximately 25% of the exam focuses on the Microsoft 365 Defender platform, including the Microsoft 365 Defender portal and incident management, Microsoft Defender for Office 365, and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.

This book will also help you understand the privacy and data governance capabilities of Microsoft 365, including labeling, retention, eDiscovery, and other features of the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

By the end of this book, you’ll not only be equipped to pass the exam but also to confidently administer Entra ID and Microsoft 365 Defender.
