Chapter 4

Secure Azure Storage

Unsecured data storage containers are the source of many data breaches in the cloud. These breaches occur because storage containers that administrators believe are only accessible to a select group of authorized people are, in fact, configured so that they are accessible to everyone in the world who knows the storage container’s address. This objective deals with securing storage in Azure, from configuring access control for storage accounts to managing storage account keys. You’ll learn about shared access signatures, storage service encryption, shared access policies, and how to use Azure AD to authenticate user access to storage resources in Azure.
