Azure gives you powerful security tools, but they only help if configured well. These are the practices that matter most for protecting Azure workloads.
The essentials
- Enforce MFA and conditional access on all identities
- Apply least privilege with Entra PIM for admin roles
- Enable Microsoft Defender for Cloud and act on its recommendations
- Segment networks and use NSGs and private endpoints
- Store secrets in Key Vault, never in code or config
We harden Azure environments to these standards and monitor them continuously.
