Security best practices for Azure solutions

This paper is a collection of security best practices to use when you’re designing, deploying, and managing your cloud solutions by using Azure. These best practices come from our experience with Azure security and the experiences of customers like you.
This paper is intended to be a resource for IT pros. This might include designers, architects, developers, and testers who build and deploy secure Azure solutions.
For each best practice, our goal is to describe:

- Why you want to enable it
- What might be the result if you don’t enable it
- How you can learn to enable it
- Where to find detailed information
