Explore how multifactor authentication (MFA) and role-based access control lessen risks of system compromise and privilege abuse, and how data classification uses tags to organize data, while preparing for the ISACA Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) exam in this 16-video course. Key concepts covered include: authentication categories and how authorization follows; how to create Active Directory (AD) users and groups on-premises; and how to create Azure AD users and groups. Learn how MFA enhances security; how to enable MFA for Azure AD users; how to assign built-in Azure roles to AD groups; and how to assign built-in Amazon Web Services (AWS) policies. Next, study the role of identity federation across organizations, including single sign-on (SSO), and learn how resource tagging aids in tracking and granting permissions. Learn to configure shared folder and New Technology File System (NTFS) Windows file system permission, as well as standard Linux file system permissions. Finally, learn to classify Windows Server files with metadata; to use resource and AD attributes to conditionally grant file system permissions; and to create and manage authentication accounts and data tags.
