Udayakumar P. Design and Deploy a Secure Azure Environment...2023

Textbook in PDF format

Follow this comprehensive guide as it provides you with a deep understanding of Azure security principles, best practices, and implementation strategies aligned with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF). The book covers various topics from Azure security to designing and deploying solutions for infrastructure, data, and applications, including identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover solutions, in line with the NIST CSF.
The book will take you through an introduction and the basic requirements for cloud security aligned with the NIST CSF. And then it will teach you how to design and deploy security for infrastructure, data, and apps security in an Azure enterprise environment. The book covers the NIST CSF and various cloud services offered by Microsoft Azure, maps each service against the NIST CSF, and explains each section with design and deployment considerations from a cybersecurity viewpoint.
Since the dawn of the Internet, people, organizations, and governments have fallen victim to cyberattacks. Cybersecurity, cyberattacks, cybercriminals, and more have been frequently discussed in the IT and business world. You’ll need a basic understanding of these concepts to protect yourself and those around you.
Cybersecurity aims to prevent attacks, damage, and unauthorized access to networks, programs, and data. In computing, security includes both cyber and physical security—organizations use both to prevent unauthorized access to data centers and other computerized systems.
Data security, which maintains data confidentiality, integrity, and availability, is a subset of cybersecurity. Cybersecurity refers to techniques and practices designed to secure digital data. Organizations and individuals are protected from the unauthorized exploitation of systems, networks, and technologies when organizations and individuals have effective cybersecurity.
After reading this book, you will understand NIST CSF alignment with Microsoft Azure Services. You will also have a comprehensive understanding of Azure security and be equipped with the knowledge and skills to design, deploy, and manage secure Azure environments. Whether you are a security professional, system administrator, or cloud architect, this book is a valuable resource for mastering Azure security and implementing robust security measures in the Azure environment using the NIST CSF.
