Security

Azure has been a leader in the development and implementation of variant hunting as a method for identifying and addressing potential security threats.

We created the new Azure DDoS Protection solution for Microsoft Sentinel that helps organizations to protect their resources and applications better against these advanced attacks.

Azure Application Gateway now supports mTLS and OCSP.

When it comes to providing outbound connectivity to the internet from cloud architectures using Azure Firewall, look no further than NAT gateway.

Microsoft continues to be the cloud leader in confidential computing, and the Azure team is excited to continue our leadership by partnering with Intel to offer confidential computing on 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors with Intel Trusted Domain Extensions (Intel TDX) later this year,

We are continuously innovating and seeking ways to enhance our products to help our customers protect against evolving threats.

Microsoft Azure’s security approach focuses on defense in depth, with layers on protections throughout all phases of design, development, and deployment of our platforms and technologies.

We are happy to share several key Azure Firewall capabilities as well as updates on recent important releases into general availability (GA) and preview.

We are excited to announce the preview of the Azure Front Door tier migration capability as well as some new additional features.

We are very excited to announce the general availability of Azure Payment HSM, a BareMetal Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) that enables customers to have native access to payment HSM in the Azure cloud.

Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are some of the largest availability and security concerns facing customers that are moving their applications to the cloud.

At Microsoft, we believe our Azure system and network management tools and expertise can be repurposed to manage and optimize telecommunication infrastructure as well. Here we describe some of the more interesting technologies that fit into the management of a cloud-based telecommunications infrastructure.
