This course presents commonly asked Active Directory interview questions with clear, structured answers based on real-world enterprise scenarios.

What Will You Learn?
  • Understand the core architecture of forests, domains, and organizational units (OUs).
  • Deploy and manage Domain Controllers, including FSMO role assignments and replication.
  • Integrate and troubleshoot DNS to ensure reliable name resolution for AD operations.
  • Manage users, groups, and devices, implementing least-privilege and role-based access controls.
  • Design efficient OU structures and delegate administrative control securely.
  • Create, link, and troubleshoot Group Policy Objects (GPOs) to manage configurations and compliance.
  • Implement backup, restore, and disaster recovery strategies for AD environments.
  • Secure AD infrastructure using Privileged Access Management (PAM) and best practices for hardening.
  • Automate routine tasks with PowerShell scripting for efficiency and consistency.
  • Configure hybrid identity with Azure AD Connect, SSO, and Conditional Access policies.
  • Monitor and audit directory changes to maintain security, compliance, and operational visibility.

  • A basic understanding of Windows Server administration and networking fundamentals (IP, DNS, DHCP).
  • Familiarity with user and group management concepts in enterprise IT environments.
  • Some experience using Windows administrative tools (Server Manager, ADUC, or PowerShell).
  • Access to a Windows Server lab environment (on-premises or virtual) for hands-on exercises.
  • Basic knowledge of Microsoft Azure concepts (for hybrid identity sections).

Audience
