Successor to AZ-500

SC-500 earns Microsoft Certified: Cloud and AI Security Engineer Associate, replacing Azure Security Engineer Associate. It is the first Microsoft security certification to test AI workload security as a formal skill area.

Clock icon

AI Security AZ-500 Never Tested

Purview DSPM for Copilot risk, conditional access for Entra Agent ID, AI Gateway in API Management, and Foundry agent guardrails. Providers still running relabeled AZ-500 content skip all of it.

Flower icon

Beyond the Azure Portal

Microsoft now expects Microsoft 365 administration familiarity, because several AI security tasks live in Purview and the M365 admin center. Candidates from a pure Azure background have never worked in those consoles.

Light bulb icon

Official Microsoft Courseware

Microsoft Learning Partner teaching official MOC materials, so classroom time maps to what Microsoft measures. Third-party materials lag every blueprint change, and this certification went generally available in July.

Stars icon

Hands-On Cloud Security Labs

Guided labs across Entra ID, Key Vault, Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, and the AI controls in Purview and Foundry. You configure the controls the exam asks about instead of reading about them.

Sunglasses icon

Instructors Who Run These Controls

Working cloud security practitioners, not career trainers reading from slides. They know which Defender and Entra behaviors trip candidates up because they have hit them in production.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Microsoft Cloud and AI Security Engineer Certification
    FAQ

    Real questions from real professionals who passed.
    Here's how we answer them.

    Passing SC-500 earns Microsoft Certified: Cloud and AI Security Engineer Associate. The exam title is Implementing End-to-End Security Controls for Cloud and AI Workloads.

    Yes. Microsoft retired the AZ-500 exam and the Azure Security Engineer Associate certification on August 31, 2026, including the renewal assessment. SC-500 is the successor path.

    It stays on your Microsoft Learn transcript and remains verifiable. It sits in Active Certifications until its normal expiration date, then moves to Historical Certifications.

    No. SC-500 is a separate credential with no conversion path, no transition exam, and no credit for holding AZ-500. You earn it by passing the SC-500 exam.

    Four domains. Manage identity, access, and governance at 20 to 25 percent. Secure storage, databases, and networking at 25 to 30 percent. Secure compute at 20 to 25 percent. Manage and monitor security posture at 20 to 25 percent.

    Inside the Secure compute domain, not as a separate domain. It covers Purview DSPM for Copilot and AI app risk, Copilot Studio agent protection, conditional access and blast radius analysis for Entra Agent ID, AI Gateway in Azure API Management for Microsoft Foundry, Defender for AI Service, and Foundry agent guardrails.

    Through Pearson VUE, either online proctored or at a test center. A score of 700 or greater is required to pass.

    Practical experience administering Azure and hybrid environments across compute, network, and storage, strong familiarity with Microsoft Entra ID, and familiarity with Microsoft 365 administration.

    Several of the AI security tasks live in Microsoft Purview and the Microsoft 365 admin center rather than the Azure portal. Candidates coming from a pure Azure background often have not worked in those consoles.

    Five days of instructor-led training covering all four SC-500 domains, with hands-on labs throughout.

    Yes. Training Camp is a Microsoft Learning Partner and this boot camp uses official Microsoft courseware aligned to the current SC-500 skills outline.

    Yes. Your SC-500 exam voucher is included with the boot camp.

    No. AZ-500 retired on August 31, 2026, along with its renewal assessment, so it can no longer be scheduled. SC-500 is the only current path to a Microsoft cloud security associate credential, and holding AZ-500 gives you no credit toward it.

    It sits at the associate level alongside SC-200 for security operations, with SC-100 Cybersecurity Architect Expert above it.
