All of our applications are now hosted on the cloud, so security is important. Microsoft has taken steps to ensure that our applications, data, workload, and data are all protected. Every IT company or organization that uses the cloud is concerned with the safety and security data and apps. Each organization has its own security requirements, so it will require a variety of adaptations to ensure the safety and security of each workload. Every enterprise uses security in different ways. Security must be considered at every level of your application stack. This includes computing, storage, networking, and then moving to application-specific controls, identity and access management.

This article will focus on the third domain of AZ204, “Implement Azure Security.”
Domain 3 of AZ204: Implement Azure Security
Azure Security, our cloud solution, is more efficient because it allows monitoring across all resources. This allows you to protect even the most insignificant data. This domain has a weight of 20-25%. This domain will show you how to create our Azure Security solution with multilayered protection to make it easier for businesses to secure their Microsoft Azure cloud environments. Azure offers many services and applications that you can use and benefit from. Security tools and other features are also available. Advanced threat vectors in the cloud require a zero trust security strategy. Everything must be confirmed and nothing can be trusted by default. The AZ-204, “Implement Azure Security”, certification exam’s third domain covers the following subtopics.
Implement user authentication and authorization
Secure cloud solutions
Implement user authentication and authorization
This section will explain the basics of modern identification, how Microsoft Identity Platform implements them, as well as how to secure Azure storage using different methods. The Microsoft Identity Platform is a collection unified, connected services that developers can use to create apps that authenticate a wide variety of user accounts. This section will explain the many Azure storage facilities that allow you to authenticate and authorise your requests. It also explains how the Microsoft Identity Platform (Azure AD) extends these capabilities. Azure Active Directory, Microsoft’s cloud-based identity that manages authorization and authentication of internal and external resources, is managed by Microsoft. You’ll also learn how to create and use shared access signatures to allow access to resources. This section will equip you with the knowledge and skills to create authentication and permission.
Secure cloud solutions
This section will show you how to use Azure Key vault, managed identities, as well as Azure App Configuration to deploy your apps more securely in Azure. First, you’ll learn how to protect your app configuration data using App Configuration AzureKey Vault. Azure App Configuration allows you to consolidate all your application settings.
