Overview of this book

Exam MS-101: Microsoft 365 Mobility and Security is a part of the Microsoft 365 Certified: Enterprise Administrator Expert certification path designed to help users validate their skills in evaluating, planning, migrating, deploying, and managing Microsoft 365 services. This book will help you implement modern device services, apply Microsoft 365 security and threat management, and manage Microsoft 365 governance and compliance. Written in a succinct way, you’ll explore chapter-wise self-assessment questions, exam tips, and mock exams with answers. You’ll start by implementing mobile device management (MDM) and handling device compliance. You’ll delve into threat detection and management, learning how to manage security reports and configure Microsoft 365 alerts. Later, you’ll discover data loss prevention (DLP) tools to protect data as well as tools for configuring audit logs and policies. The book will also guide you through using Azure Information Protection (AIP) for deploying clients, applying policies, and configuring services and users to enhance data security. Finally, you’ll cover best practices for configuring settings across your tenant to ensure compliance and security. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned to work with Microsoft 365 services and covered the concepts and techniques you need to know to pass the MS-101 exam.

How to get the most out of this book

While this book alone will introduce you to concepts and refresh your memory on topics you may be less familiar with, you can maximize your studies by practicing and exploring what you're learning first-hand in an actual tenant.

As you'll find in this book, it's recommended that you get a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription in order to explore, but you could also combine a Microsoft 365 E3 trial with an Enterprise Mobility and Security E5 trial to cover most of the book's topics. In the end, what matters most is that you make sure you get a trial or a subscription to the services and apps you feel least confident with so that you can spend time exploring them first hand.
