Security, responsibility, and trust in Azure

Every system, architecture, and application needs to be designed with security in mind. There’s too much at risk. For instance, a denial of service attack could prevent your customer from reaching your web site or services and block you from doing business. Defacement of your website damages your reputation. And a data breach could be even worse — as it can ruin hard-earned trust, while causing significant personal and financial harm. As administrators, developers, and IT management, we all must work to guarantee the security of our systems.

Secure your Azure resources with role-based access control (RBAC)

Securing your Azure resources, such as virtual machines, websites, networks, and storage, is a critical function for any organization using the cloud. You want to ensure that your data and assets are protected, but still grant your employees and partners the access they need to perform their jobs. Role-based access control (RBAC) is an authorization system in Azure that helps you manage who has access to Azure resources, what they can do with those resources, and where they have access.

As an example, suppose you work for First Up Consultants, which is an engineering firm that specializes in circuit and electrical design. They’ve moved their workloads and assets to Azure to make collaboration easier across several offices and other companies. You work in the IT department at First Up Consultants, where you are responsible for keeping the company’s assets secure, but still allowing users to access the resources they need. You’ve heard that RBAC can help you manage resources in Azure.

Data security is critical when protecting your customer’s privacy and your organization’s reputation. Businesses have closed due to financial damage or ruined reputations.

To support the online marketplace your company provides, you store an assortment of data from your customers, such as phone numbers, addresses, and credit cards. You also store data that is critical to the health of your business, such as financial account balances and intellectual property. If exposed or maliciously accessed it could jeopardize the health of your business and the trust your customers place in you. It’s your responsibility to make sure this data stored in your databases is as secure as possible, to protect both your customer data and your business data.
