What does DDoS Protection do?
- Sanitizes unwanted network traffic, before it
impacts service availability. - Basic service tier is automatically enabled in
Azure.
-Standard service tier adds mitigation capabilities,
tuned to protect Azure Virtual Network resources.
Set inbound and outbound rules to filter by source and
destination IP address, port, and protocol.
Network Security Groups (NSGs)
What are the network security solutions ?
Perimeter layer
Networking layer
protects your networks boundaries with Azure DDoS Protection and Azure Firewall.
Perimeter layer
only permits traffic to pass between networked resources with Network Security Group (NSG) inbound
and outbound rules.
Networking layer
What are the 2 concepts that are fundamental to understanding identify and access
- Authentication
-Authorization
Provides additional security for your identities by requiring two or more elements for full authentication.
Azure Multi-Factor Authentication
Stores application secrets in a centralized cloud
location, to securely control access permissions, and
access logging.
Azure Key Vault
Classifies and protects documents, and emails, by
applying labels.
Automatically using rules and conditions
defined by administrators.
Azure Information Protection (AIP)
Cloud-based security solution for identifying, detecting, and investigating advanced threats, compromised identities, and malicious insider actions.
