Holiday is over I hope you all enjoyed, now back to lock in.

Hello all! I’m glad to have found this place. I’ve been in IT for 10+ years. I have done help desk, system administration, M365 administration, Intune engineering and desktop support. When it comes to IAM, I’m more than familiar with concepts. I have some experience with Okta, but have more experience with Active Directory and Entra ID. I would even go far as stating that my Intune experience and M365 administration experience was a mix of endpoint/ tenant management and IAM (with minimal IGA as well). I would like to get back into IAM work and step away from end user support. I’m currently thinking about going for AZ-104 and SC-300 or going for Okta Professional and Okta Administrator.

Completed IAM concepts, Learning I use these tools daily as an Admin and never gave much thought to what and how things are working in the background.
