Diagnostic
A calibrated baseline test, taken solo, that maps exactly where you stand across Microsoft security solutions, Microsoft Entra identity, and Purview compliance before you study anything.
About the SC-900 exam
SC-900 is Microsoft's entry-level exam for security, compliance and identity. It validates that you understand core concepts such as Zero Trust, shared responsibility and authentication, and can describe what Microsoft Entra, Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Sentinel, and Microsoft Purview do. It suits students, business stakeholders and IT staff new to Microsoft security, and no prior certification is required. Microsoft does not publish the question count; the exam lasts 45 minutes and the passing score is 700 out of 1000. SC-900 is active, its skills measured were updated on October 21, 2026, and no retirement or replacement has been announced. Edureify's plan budgets roughly 22–34 hours of study.
The Edureify Readiness System
Edureify runs on one loop: a Diagnostic maps exactly where you stand across Microsoft security solutions, Microsoft Entra identity, and Purview compliance before you study anything, an adaptive Roadmap turns that into a day-by-day plan weighted toward your actual gaps, a self-paced Practice Loop of questions, mock exams, and spaced review builds mastery topic by topic, and an Intervention layer steps in the moment your progress stalls. Every session feeds back into a live Readiness Score that predicts when you'll be exam-ready and names the specific topics still holding you back — not a completion percentage frozen at the end of a course.
Adaptive roadmap
A day-by-day plan built from your diagnostic and rebuilt automatically as you progress — weighted toward your actual gaps, not a generic syllabus.
Practice loop
Practice questions, mock exams, and spaced-repetition review, self-paced, with mastery tracked across Microsoft security solutions, Microsoft Entra identity, and Purview compliance.
Readiness prediction
A live score with a predicted ready-by date and the specific topics still dragging it down, recalculated after every session.
Certifying a team for SC-900, not just yourself?
Edureify also runs as a team platform for L&D leaders: every team member gets the same self-paced diagnostic-to-readiness loop, and managers get a live dashboard showing each person's Readiness Score, predicted ready-by date, and what's specifically holding them back — plus a portfolio view for reporting on SC-900 readiness across the whole team.
How MeasureUp approaches SC-900 prep
MeasureUp, a long-standing Microsoft Partner, sells the Microsoft Practice Test SC-900: Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals, a 124-question test last updated in August 2025. You can sit it in Certification Mode to mimic the 45-minute exam or in Practice Mode to drill specific objectives, with explanations throughout and a Practice Test Pass Guarantee on top.
MeasureUp's reports score you by objective, and it sells separate Assessment products, so there is real feedback here. What we did not find is an adaptive plan or a predicted readiness date; after a weak SC-900 result, choosing what to study next is up to you.
Edureify begins with a Diagnostic across Microsoft security solutions, Entra identity and Purview compliance, builds a short daily plan around your weakest SC-900 areas, and keeps a Readiness Score that predicts when you can book with confidence, with an AI tutor for any concept that won't stick.

Questions people ask before choosing
Is MeasureUp worth it for a fundamentals exam like SC-900?
If you want a timed SC-900 rehearsal with explanations and a refund guarantee, it does that well. For deciding what to study first, its objective-level reports help, but it does not build an adaptive SC-900 plan.
What does MeasureUp's guarantee cover on SC-900?
Per MeasureUp, you get the SC-900 practice test price back if you fail the certification exam twice within 90 days of purchase and submit score reports and a receipt. The terms also mention scoring 90% or more twice in Certification Mode.
Does either option predict when I'll be ready for SC-900?
Edureify does, with a Readiness Score and predicted ready-by date. MeasureUp shows your SC-900 scores by objective but, as far as we found, no predicted date.

Choose MeasureUp for SC-900 if you have already studied and want an exam-like practice test from a Microsoft Partner with a written refund guarantee.
