Areas to study when dealing with Azure, Defender(s), Autopilot and other new Microsoft Technologies.
I started my NEW (previous) IT job, in Customer Support. Since I have been away from the IT field for about 3 years, the agency I am now working for has new technologies that I am familiar with, but not an expert. Although, I will be working in Customer Support, with the news that Windows 10 will no longer be supported, I have been told that I might be heavily involved with the imaging of Windows 11, (I have experience in imaging Windows 7, old news).
In speaking with a few of the other employees, I was made aware that the agency runs a hybrid environment, some Virtualization, some AZURE and some on prem.
I was additionally informed that due recent changes in the agency, several employee had resigned and left a few areas un-manned.
I was told, that if I was able to learn a few things around AZURE, mainly in security, which need a dictated person, it could be an opportunity.
I recently passed AZ-900, AI-900 and SC-900, so I can say that I am familiar, but not well versed.
So areas, like Azure Defender, Sentinel and other areas that I am NOT too familiar with, other then basic. Another areas that I have been asked to review and gain knowledge in the area of Autopilot, which I am just getting to know.
So, those that are there anyone.......
1. either studying these areas or 2. have studied these areas.
Which exams would you recommend I focus on to show my knowledge and maybe get a upward promotional position.

I am currently working on Fundamental exams, since the cost of these exams. I was hoping there was a Windows 11 exam, but there is not, so other exams I am considering are
1. MS-102
2. MD-102
3. AZ-800
4. AZ-801
Some of the SC exam are an interest, also. Any recommendations would be appreciated. What would be a good amount of time to focus on each exam, I have read that some say 60 to 90 days. I have the time, not going any where, with all this DOGE BS going on, I am lucky to have job.
