Benefits of Hardening Azure Cloud Server
Even though Azure is more secure than on-premise computing solutions, Azure is still vulnerable to a variety of vulnerabilities such as access toke abuse and leakage, lateral movement from compromised workloads, and server-side request forgery aka SSRF.
These vulnerabilities allow a bad actor to perform a variety of attacks including access token server-side application abuse, altering the internal resources, and data extortion to external sources.
Conducting a comprehensive Azure cloud server hardening with a proper in-depth cybersecurity strategy in hand would help prevent and mitigate the attacks ensuring your applications are safe from vulnerabilities.
