Azure network security
Protect your applications and cloud workloads from network-based cyberattacks with network security services
Take a ZeroTrust approach to help secure your workloads
Whether you're moving workloads or modernizing apps on Azure, using cloud-native controls and network security services improves business agility and saves costs on security infrastructure. Improve cloud network security using a Zero Trust approach to perform network segmentation and apply intelligent threat protection and traffic encryption.
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
Increase development speed by integrating network security management and development with DevSecOps. Implement infrastructure as code and incorporate security controls directly into application development workflows to accelerate development and time to market.
Application services
Improve security for your Azure workloads with automated network security management and upgrades, and increase visibility into your environment. Azure network security reduces the likelihood of a security breach, as well as the associated costs of a breach.
Data services
Help IT teams deliver network-related work more efficiently and with faster deployments.
Data services
Save on costs for the maintenance of on-premises security tools and time-consuming vendor management.

Frequently asked questions
-
Cloud-native is all about speed, scale and agility. When you choose a cloud-native network security service, you can deploy a service much quicker, with auto-scaling capability and at a lower cost. In addition, a cloud-native service provides better integration with other Azure services that you are using, thus giving you a lot more agility to move workloads to the cloud.
-
Azure Firewall and Azure DDoS Protection are two services you should start with if you are moving workloads that has external IP addresses. This will ensure that you have network traffic filtering and protection from denial of service attacks that could cause service disruption to your workload.
-
Azure Web Application Firewall and Azure DDoS Protection are two services that can help protect your web applications from malicious attacks, bots, and common web vulnerabilities.
-
