Azure Cloud Security Assessment
Microsoft Azure provides a suite of infrastructure services that you can use to deploy your cloud applications. Azure cloud security assessment refers to the services, controls, and features configured for customers of Azure services for protecting their data, applications, and other assets in Microsoft Azure. The security responsibilities vary depending on whether the data is hosted on Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) or Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

What is Azure Cloud Security Assessment?
This assessment is intended to help enterprises think through various operational security considerations (shared responsibility model of cloud hosting) as they deploy sophisticated enterprise applications on Azure. This engagement can also be used to help you build a secure cloud migration and operation strategy for your organization. We highly recommend these operational and strategic considerations for your existing and new application deployments on Azure. Some of our key areas of focus are:
- Security Roles & Access Controls
- Data Collection & Storage
- Security Policies & Recommendations
- Identity & Access Management
- Ongoing Security Monitoring
- Azure Security Center Configurations
- Developer Operations (DevOps)
- Office 365 Security Configuration & Hardening (O365)
