Azure Security

Build secure, scalable, highly available web front ends in Azure.

Azure Application Gateway is a web traffic load balancer that enables the management of traffic to web applications.

Support for public, private and hybrid websites with an integrated web application firewall and 99.95 per cent uptime service-level agreement for multi-instance deployments.

Strong encryption from the front end to the back end helps secure your data. Scale your web application with SSL offload and centralised SSL certificate management. Protect your applications from common web vulnerabilities such as SQL injection scripting and monitor your web applications using rules and groups set to your requirements.

Autoscaling, zone redundancy, web application firewall and Secure Sockets Layer termination (SSL/TLS) all incorporated into this service.

Protect multi-cloud and hybrid environments with integrated security from code to cloud.

Use Azure Defender, integrated with Azure Security Center, for Azure and hybrid cloud workload protection and security.

With Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities, stand up against threats such as remote desktop protocol (RDP) brute-force attacks, and SQL injections. Streamline security with AI and automation.

Ensure that your Azure resources are protected. Protect your data in Azure VMs, on-premises and in other clouds.

Detect unusual attempts to access storage accounts and malware uploads to Azure Storage. Scan container images in Azure Container Registry for vulnerabilities. Protect Azure Kubernetes Service instances. Safeguard Windows servers and clients with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (servers) and protect Linux servers with behavioural analytics. Assess application vulnerabilities in virtual machines with a built-in vulnerability assessment.

Prevent, detect, and respond quickly to modern threats.

Protect your Azure Virtual Network resources with cloud-native network security.

Azure Firewall is a managed, cloud-based network security service that protects your Azure Virtual Network resources. It’s a fully stateful firewall as a service with built-in high availability and unrestricted cloud scalability.

You can centrally create, enforce, and log application and network connectivity policies across subscriptions and virtual networks. Azure Firewall uses a static public IP address for your virtual network resources allowing outside firewalls to identify traffic originating from your virtual network. The service is fully integrated with Azure Monitor for logging and analytics.

You can centrally create allow or deny network filtering rules by source and destination IP address, port, and protocol. Azure Firewall is fully stateful, so it can distinguish legitimate packets for different types of connections. Rules are enforced and logged across multiple subscriptions and virtual networks.

Azure Firewall security to help protect your digital assets. Strengthen your network security posture, deploy a stateful firewall in minutes and prevent malware and viruses from spreading.

Simplify security operations with intelligent security analytics and scale as you grow.

Collect data at cloud scale – across all users, devices, applications and infrastructure, both on-premises and in multiple clouds. Detect previously uncovered threats and minimise false positives using analytics and unparalleled threat intelligence from Microsoft. Investigate threats with AI and hunt suspicious activities at scale, tapping into decades of cybersecurity work at Microsoft. Respond to incidents rapidly with built-in orchestration and automation of common tasks.

As a cloud-native SIEM, Microsoft Sentinel is 48 per cent less expensive and 67 per cent faster to deploy than legacy on-premises SIEMs. Invest in security, not infrastructure setup and maintenance, with the first cloud-native SIEM from a major cloud provider. Never let a storage limit or a query limit prevent you from protecting your enterprise.

Build next-generation security operations powered by the cloud and AI. A cost-effective, cloud-native SIEM with predictable billing and flexible commitments.

Connecting your infrastructure to the cloud to establish a secure, cross-premises connectivity.

Connect to your Azure virtual networks from any location. Point-to-site VPN lets you connect to your virtual machines on Azure virtual networks from anywhere, whether you are on the road, working from your favourite café, managing your deployment or doing a demo for your customers.

Connect your datacenter to Azure. Azure VPN Gateway connects your on-premises networks to Azure via site-to-site VPNs in a similar way that you set up and connect to a remote branch office. The connectivity is secure and uses the industry-standard protocols Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) and Internet Key Exchange (IKE).

Azure Firewall security to help protect your digital assets. Strengthen your network security posture, deploy a stateful firewall in minutes and prevent malware and viruses from spreading.

A cloud-native web application firewall (WAF) service that provides powerful protection for web apps.

Azure Web Application Firewall is a cloud-native service that protects web apps from common web-hacking techniques such as SQL injection and security vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting. Deploy the service in minutes to get complete visibility into your environment and block malicious attacks.

Enhance security with high availability and scale. Optimise performance with Azure Web Application Firewall deployed with Azure Front Door. Increase throughput for your global users with edge load balancing and application acceleration. Optimise your web app for high availability and scalability – with built-in auto-scaling and zone redundancy.

Choose from thousands of SaaS apps. Simplify single sign on (SSO) and extend this to thousands of pre-integrated software as a service (SaaS) applications to streamline account and credentials management.

Protection for the top 10 open web application security Project (OWASP) security vulnerabilities. Deployed in minutes to improve security in a single click.
