Introducing the SC-400 exam objectives
In this book, we will cover the exam objectives for the SC-400 Information Protection Administration exam. The objectives of the exam are closely followed within the structure of this book. Each exam objective is weighted differently.

The weight percentage does not mean that if an objective is at 10%, then you will only get 6 questions out of 60 on this area. Microsoft exams use a scoring scale of 1000 based on the type of question and the objectives covered in that question. The weights of the objectives will aid you in understanding the standing that is placed on the specific objective.
The next section will provide information on, and insight into, the types of roles that this exam highlights and how the SC-400 exam can assist you in your professional development.
