The Azure Cloud of the Microsoft family is always growing to satisfy the needs of the IT professionals. This growth involves the delivery of knowledge to individuals who will help in continuing the evolving technology. It is necessary to certify these individuals upon their successful completion of the exam. Microsoft 70-744 is an intended exam to award professionals with an MCSE certification on Windows Server 2016 security. MCSE certification is credited to everyone who takes 70-744 exam under one condition. The candidate must demonstrate an extensive understanding of the following domains which form the basis of exam setting.
ü  Threat detection breaching and implementation of solutions          (15-20%)
ü  File encryption and disk implementation                                           (25-30%)
ü  Virtualized infrastructure security                                                     (5-10%)
ü  Networked infrastructure security                                                     (10-15%)
ü  Privileged identities management                                                     (25-30%)
ü  Specified workload security implementation                                     (5-10%)

70-744 is a professionally designed exam to put into consideration all these skills based on the percentage of every respective domain. However, Microsoft provides an Exam Ref that unionizes the exam objectives strategically to help you prepare for the exam efficiently.

Consequently, Microsoft has important peculiar features of the exam preparation which are Exam Replay with or without practice test. The candidates will utilize this opportunity of doing exam replays as a way of building self-confidence to tackle 70-744 exam which is not easy to pass. It is the offer from Microsoft that needs to be exhausted before it vanishes!


Audience Targeted

MCSE certification is ideal for professionals who currently work as system administrators or network engineers and are concerned with network security tasks. This certification will take them through a deep dive of understanding various concepts.

It is also important for any IT professional who typically uses software that is configured to use Windows Server environments. He/she will understand the logic behind the managed access and cloud services techniques.

Core Requirements

Once the candidate is ready for 70-744 exam, one should have understood the network security threats solutions. The exam needs the candidate to demonstrate the professional implementation of the CIA in a system.

It is also a basic requirement for the candidate to have the in-depth understanding of the different encryption techniques. This is one way of securing data by making it viewable to particular users who have the privileges to access.

How I Prepared for 70-744 Exam


I have worked in an IT company as a generalist of various IT tasks and I always hated this. I decided to get certified after I realized that I have a passion for studying Windows Server security and its general implementation. Despite the fact that I have been in the field, I had to start afresh as a novice learner in technology arena because I have not had a chance to see what specialist do in my place of work. I had to come up with a perfect approach that helped me to pass the exam without so much mental frustration as the certified do say. However, I am proud to share the techniques that I consider crucial to every candidate intending to do 70-744 exam or any IT exam elsewhere.
ü  Analyze the course outline- having known what you are needed to understand then it is easy to implement the concepts during your learning. Remember that the course outline is like a dictator to the examiners. They must play within the course outline or else the exam will be flagged invalid. The course outline is the only thing we share with the examiners.
ü  Set all tools- most of this certification exam involves a lot of practices that are accompanied by simulators/emulators. It is important that you set all these tools on standby before you begin your learning. It is important to always settle because you do not need to stop in search of some key requirements in the middle of your studies.
ü  Study in a noise-free environment- disturbances such as noise hinders your understanding. Let us take an example where you study in a TV room and your family members are having fun, you will have a big problem in figuring out the main concepts. The conducive environment to study is where it is quiet and calm.
ü  Conceptualize- whenever you learn any concept, try to figure out how the knowledge is implemented in the real world. Every IT concept is intended to solve a problem in the society. Your learning should be based on the current inventions you see and those which you imagine.
ü  Implement-the training always provides a sample implementation of every concept that you come across. It is your duty to put into practice every sample that is designed to enhance the understanding of a certain topic. In fact, the conclusion of the sample implementations is always tested as the exam is more of theory than practice.
ü  Believe in passing- if you go to an examenvironment without trusting yourself or being confident then you might fail at last. Lack of self-esteem is the key point that explains the failures that usually happen in the exam. Remember that some of the questions are only twisted to test your ability to tackle life's scenarios in IT arena.
Where to Learn
The provision of the learning materials is often facilitated by interested partners who also want to see technology being transformed by you. The best training materials are always considered to give the best performance. Successful IT specialists do recommend the candidates to train.
Digital Files
The revision that is done for an IT exam should remain digital in the sense that the method used should be technological rather than traditional methods. This involves the use of https://www.examcollection.com/70-744.html from VCE files that are opened by a programmed computer application called VCE exam simulator. It provides efficient revision which addresses challenges faced by individuals in IT field. A number of them are available on the internet. Communicate with candidates that have already passed this exam, they definitely know which sites are worth paying attention to while preparing for the exam.
Conclusion
Networking is a common term in every IT field because it ensures that there is efficient communication between links in the most secure manner. Receiving this certification is like having the backbone of technology in your hands. MSCE certification remains the best in networking.

The Top 4 TV Deals Besides Netflix

The Top 4 TV Deals Besides Netflix
Featuring thousands of shows and movies on its site, Netflix has taken the streaming world by storm since its founding in 1997, with nearly 7.5 million customers joining its customer base in the first quarter of 2018 alone.

However, while other TV streaming sites and bundles haven’t quite reached an iconic ‘Netflix and chill’ status, there are still some TV viewers that find themselves dissatisfied with what the popular streaming site alone can offer. Thus, many people have started looking into alternative options for streaming their favorite TV shows and movies online.

Luckily for them – and for you if you have similarly found the perks of Netflix alone to be underwhelming – there are other options.

Why Are Viewers Turning to Alternative TV Deals?

Although still able to boast its success as the #1 streaming platform worldwide, services and TV deals beyond Netflix have been gaining popularity in recent years as well.

This may be due to the increasing cost for most Netflix membership plans, which has made deals like Verizon triple play – which bundles gigabit connection, TV, and phone services – a relatively budget-friendly option to turn to.

Some people are also just ready to find some new content that hasn’t yet been added to world’s favorite streaming platform. While Netflix still has an impressive offering of media for viewing, for those with more specific tastes, or who are otherwise up for trying out the two to four-week trials offered by some popular alternative streaming networks, TV viewers have no shortage of television options.

In addition to Verizon’s Fios triple play deal, listed below are four other top contenders gaining popularity as Netflix alternatives.

Top Alternatives for TV Deals


1. Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Prime Video is just one of the perks Amazon Prime members can gain access to when signing up for their prime membership account. However, the video service – now #2 to Netflix for streaming – can also be bought alone, without the prime membership, at a cost of $8.99 per month.

Amazon Prime Video features TV shows from dozens of channels, movies, as well as original content such as the popular shows “Man in the High Castle” and “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”.

2. Hulu

Hulu is another top TV and movie streaming platform, as a viewing option very similar to Netflix. Starting at $7.99 per month for its lowest-cost subscription (with an upgraded commercial-free plan available for $11.99) the pricing is similar to its top competitors.

One perk of this streaming platform is its feature of offering episodes of shows currently on air, typically allowing access to new episodes one day after airing on their respective networks. Hulu also now offers a Live TV package (at a pricier $39.99 per month), which allows users to live stream 50+ top live and on-demand channels, such as ESPN and popular news channels.

3. Acorn TV

For TV viewers in the United States who can’t get enough of the most popular British dramas and comedies, Acorn TV is an increasingly popular American streaming service providing viewer access to a myriad of TV shows from the UK as well as other countries.

At $4.99 a month, it can be an economical, commercial-free, on-demand TV deal for those still reeling over the end of Downton Abbey and who are looking for a new engaging British show to incite the same excitement.

Acorn TV is available to be streamed on several platforms, including Roku devices, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, or simply your iPad or computer.

4. YouTube TV

Available at $35 a month, YouTube TV is a recent premium streaming service offered by YouTube featuring cable network streaming, live broadcast television, as well as shows from other popular entertainment, news, and sports networks. In other words, it’s basically a cable replacement, which might better explain the cost.

YouTube TV can be viewed on Google Chromecast, Android and iOS devices, tablets, and an Apple TV.
