Azure Security Services
Azure Security is a comprehensive, cloud‑native set of services and capabilities designed to help protect identities, data, applications, and infrastructure across hybrid and multicloud environments. It combines built‑in platform security features—such as network isolation, encryption, and identity management through Microsoft Entra ID—with advanced threat detection and posture management tools like Microsoft Defender for Cloud and Azure Policy. Together, these services provide continuous monitoring, automated threat response, secure‑by‑design infrastructure, and governance controls that help organizations meet compliance requirements and reduce risk. Azure Security’s integrated approach ensures that protection is woven into every layer of the cloud, from physical datacenters to workloads, enabling organizations to operate confidently and securely at scale.
Azure’s security ecosystem delivers end‑to‑end protection across
- Identities (authentication, access control)
- Data (protection at rest, in transit, and in use)
- Networks (firewalls, DDoS mitigation)
- Applications & DevOps (runtime, code storage, pipelines)
- Cloud workloads (VMs, containers, storage, databases)
- Governance & compliance (policies, blueprints, auditing)
- Threat detection & response (SIEM, XDR, continuous monitoring)
All of these services operate under the Zero Trust principle: never trust, always verify.
