Challenges of Azure Cloud Security 

To ensure that your cloud workloads in Microsoft Azure are secure, it’s important to assess your environments regularly. Azure cloud attacks occur because organizations fail to follow Microsoft’s Shared Responsibility Model and proactively identify cloud misconfigurations in the services they rely on daily.

Common Azure misconfigurations that can lead to cloud security data breaches include:

Misconfigured IAM policies           Unrestricted access to resources           Insecure data storage

How Picus Help You to Secure AWS

Picus Cloud Security Validation (CSV) helps you to stay on top of cloud security posture management by identifying the two primary causes of data breaches in Azure: cloud misconfigurations and overly permissive IAM policies.
