Hello there, and welcome to Pluralsight. This module is Secure
Windows Server Storage, and my name is Tim Warner. We have four
learning goals for this module.
We're going to start by managing Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption.
We'll understand how to manage and recover BitLocker encrypted
volumes. We'll learn about Azure Disk Encryption, which is, if you
don't already know this, is the analog,
the Azure cloud analog to local BitLocker Drive Encryption. And
you'll understand Microsoft proven practices for managing those
BitLocker keys in an Azure cloud environment.
We're in the final module of our Secure On‑premises and Hybrid
Infrastructure course. It's been a long, strange trip, six modules all in
support of part of the AZ‑801 certification exam, and you'll recall that
AZ‑801 is half of the requirements of the Windows Server Hybrid
Administrator Associate certification.
We began our journey with securing the Windows Server OS globally.
Then we looked at Active Directory accounts in a hybrid cloud context.
Next,
we looked at yet more Azure services and how we can use those
on‑prem. We examined Windows Defender Firewall. That was the
Secure Windows Server Networking module.
And then we're finishing with Secure Windows Server Storage,
which, if you haven't put it together yet, is centering upon
just one product, well, two really, BitLocker Drive Encryption
and Azure Disk Encryption. Let's get to it.
