Common cloud security threats we see in the wild

The biggest question now becomes as to how to protect your Azure environment against all those threats: protect your cloud workload from
threats using Azure Security Center and Azure Policies!

A go-do list to protect your workloads against threats:

  1. Good hygiene comes first, strengthen your cloud security posture
  2. Turn on threat protection for all cloud resources
  3. Reduce attack surface for VMs with JIT, Network and app controls
  4. Integrate alerts into your SIEM or Ticketing system & notify app owners
  5. Identify root cause and drive new security hygiene up
  6. Bring security controls together by using a standard like Azure CIS/NIST 800-53/ISO27001

The last point on the above list touches upon our Managed Security Services for Azure.
