Day 625 of 100 Days of Cloud: Securing The Cloud

I am at day 625 of 100 Days of Cloud! I am very happy reaching this ¼ mark of my 7^th 100-day cycle because this Monday I passed my SC-200 Security Operations Analyst retake exam. I believe that this is the highlight of this cycle.

 

Confession – I will admit that whenever I do not have a certification and/or a program acceptance letter, that I am not making the progress that I should make. A certification and a program shows that I am productive with my time.

Below are all of my accomplishments during this 1^st 25-day period:

• 3/9/22 – Debuted Career Trajectory LinkedIn Newsletter covering IT, cloud and project management
• 3/14/22 – Azure Cloud Week for AZ-305 certification training
• 3/14/22 – Passed My SC-200 Security Operations Analyst retake exam

Debuted Career Trajectory LinkedIn Newsletter

This Career Trajectory LinkedIn newsletter focuses on IT, cloud and project management. I am happy to have received over 1000 subscribers in less than 1 week. This is big to me because this means how responsive my LinkedInfam is towards my work. Career Trajectory is weekly and you can subscribe here.

Attended Azure Cloud Week For AZ-305 Certification Training

I attended this training because I failed my AZ-305 beta exam. I am using this training to prepare for my retake. What I will say is that I do feel that after this training I will pass this retake and become an Azure Architect Expert, which is my ultimate goal.

Passed My SC-200 Security Operations Analyst Retake Exam

My passing my SC-200 Security Operations Analyst retake exam is  this highlight of this cycle because it has taken a whole lot of energy and resources (some of my usual study resources were antiquated). My passing my SC-200 also means that I now qualify to sit for the SC-100 Cybersecurity Architect beta exam next month in April. I will become one of the first Certified Cybersecurity Architect Expert.

What’s Next?

Three things for these next 25-day cycle: 1) Studying to pass my AZ-500 Azure Security Technologies exam. I have delayed it for over 1 year and my exam voucher expires April 20, 2022.) 2) Pass the AZ-720 Azure Support Engineer beta exam which will come out March 31, 2022 and 3) Focus on acing my cloud interviews while passing my AWS Solutions Architect Professional certification exam.  I will get this certification before the AWS Community Builder May 2, 2022 renewal deadline date.
