Introduction
In this post I will try to bring Azure Security services.
Azure security related services
If you refer to the official website (Azure security) , it is as follows.
Details of security related services in Azure
Please see here for the entire Azure security documentation
- Azure Security Center: CSPM and CWPP. CSPM is an abbreviation for Cloud Security Posture Management, which visualizes cloud service misconfigurations. CWPP stands for Cloud Workload Protection Platform and protects cloud services from misconfigurations and threats.
- Azure Application Gateway: WAF (Web Application Firewall) and L7 load distributor.
- Azure Active Directory: IAM. IAM stands for Identity and Access Management and manages identity and access on a cloud base.
- Azure DDoS Protection: DDoS countermeasure service.
- Azure Key Vault: Comprehensively manages secret information such as encryption keys and passwords, and certificates.
- Azure Information Protection: Protect Office documents and emails (viewer restrictions, print prohibition, referral deadline settings, etc.).
Sumary
There are only 6 related services of Azure Security, which is a small impression compared to AWS, but since there are various things when looking at the documentation of Azure security as a whole, it seems that the number of services should be taken as reference information only ( Example: SIEM’s Sentinel etc. are included in the whole document). In addition, MCAS (CASB) and Defender ATP are treated as Microsoft brands and are not included in Azure security related services.
