Principles of security and legal requirements

The classification of data, such as business information or personal data, is not only necessary for an on-premises infrastructure. It is the basis for the assurance of business-related information and is represented by compliance with official regulations. These requirements are of greater significance when using cloud services or solutions outside your own company and regulation borders. They are clearly needed for a controlled shift of data in an area in which responsibilities on contracts must be regulated. Safety limits do not stop at the private cloud, and are responsible for the technical and organizational implementation and control of security settings.

The subsequent objectives are as follows:

  • Construction, extension, or adaptation of the data classification to the Cloud Integration
  • Data classification as a basis for encryption or isolated security silos
  • Data classification as a basis for authentication and authorization

Microsoft itself has strict controls that restrict access to Azure to Microsoft employees. Microsoft also enables customers to control access to their Azure environments, data, and applications, as well as allowing them to penetrate and audit services with special auditors and regulations on request.

Note

A statement from Microsoft: Customers will only use cloud providers in which they have great trust. They must trust that the privacy of their information will be protected, and that their data will be used in a way that is consistent with their expectations. We build privacy protections into Azure through Privacy by Design.
