Updated for the October 28, 2026 exam outline

Course modules now match Microsoft's four exam domains and weights: user identities 20-25%, authentication and access management 25-30%, workload identities 20-25%, identity governance 20-25%.
Global Secure Access: "Private Access", "Internet Access" and "Internet Access for Microsoft 365" are now Microsoft Entra Private Access, Microsoft Entra Internet Access and the Microsoft traffic profile for Microsoft 365. Covered in Lesson 6.
Privileged access: the outline now says "emergency access accounts" instead of "break-glass accounts". The lessons use both terms.
User authentication: OAuth 2.0 tokens were dropped from the authentication methods list, which now covers certificate-based authentication, Temporary Access Pass, Microsoft Authenticator and passkeys (FIDO2).
