Chapter 4: Azure Network Security
In Chapter 1, An Introduction to Azure Security, we briefly touched on network security in Azure, but only discussed how network security is handled by Microsoft inside Azure data centers. As the network also falls under the shared responsibility model, in this chapter, we will discuss network security from a user aspect and how to handle the security we are responsible for.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Understanding Azure Virtual Network
- Considering other virtual network security options
- Azure DDoS protection
- Azure Bastion
- Hub-and-spoke network topology
- Understanding Azure Application Gateway
- Understanding Azure Front Door
