Pros

  • Took sc500 during beta and found it to quite straight forward and passed.
  • Parent context: It seems to be a good choice, i just don't know if it is very similar to the AZ-500 Reply: It’s the direct replacement for AZ-500. With added modules and slanted towards security of AI services Using Security Copilot to f...
  • with that background SC-500 is probably the closest fit: it explicitly covers securing AI solutions, Copilot Studio agents, Entra Agent ID, AI Gateway and Defender/Purview.
  • Based on what you shared, I think SC-500 is a strong choice. If your goal is senior leadership in cybersecurity, security and AI are becoming increasingly intertwined. It’s a certification that aligns with where Microsoft is investing an...
  • But given that you do Azure daily and is hands on, then SC-500 is of course applicable.

Cons

  • I'd skip it and pick SC-200 or SC-300 (or SC-500). These exams are way more difficult than the ones you have right now though, especially if you have very little actual experience with the technologies.

  • Sc-500 beta was veel moeilijker dan az-500.
  • Parent context: Trueee but it’s also gonna take abit of time for courses to be available for the sc500, practice exams, etc 😅 Reply: It's basically AZ500 + a bit of AI stuffs (DSPM for AI if I recalled correctly)
