Azure Security
Azure Security is a comprehensive set of cloud security services, tools, and features provided by Microsoft Azure to protect cloud workloads, data, and infrastructure. It includes identity and access management, threat protection, information protection, and security management capabilities. These services help organizations implement security controls, detect threats, and ensure compliance across their Azure environments.
Developers should learn Azure Security when building or managing applications on Azure to implement robust security-by-design principles and protect against cloud-specific threats. It is essential for securing cloud-native applications, managing access controls, encrypting sensitive data, and meeting compliance requirements like GDPR or HIPAA. Use cases include securing microservices architectures, implementing zero-trust models, and automating security responses in DevOps pipelines.
