AZ-500 : Microsoft Azure Security Technologies

The AZ-500 exam, also known as Microsoft Azure Security Technologies, is a certification exam aimed at professionals who implement security controls and threat protection, manage identity and access, and protect data, applications, and networks in cloud and hybrid environments as part of an end-to-end infrastructure. The candidates for this exam are typically security engineers who are responsible for managing and securing cloud-based solutions, which include applications and data services. As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the cost of the AZ-500 exam varies by region but usually is around $165 USD. Keep in mind that prices can change, and additional taxes may apply depending on your location. It is advisable to check the official Microsoft Certification website or contact a local testing center for the most current information on pricing.
