Study Notes

Cloud Security Responsibility

In the cloud, security responsibility is shared between the cloud provider and the customer.
The Shared Responsibility Model is commonly used to break down the cloud security responsibility.

Fortinet Cloud Security

The Fortinet Security Fabric enables end-to-end security in the cloud.
The Fortinet cloud security solution provides advanced security features beyond native cloud vendor security options.

Azure Management and Availability

Management options available for Azure services include Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and Azure portal.
The availability of Azure regions provides geographic redundancy and latency reduction.
Region pairs in Azure help reduce the risk of natural disasters and outages.
Azure Availability Zones protect against datacenter-level failures and outages.
There are 3 separate zones in all enabled regions for Azure Availability Zones.
Some Azure services, such as Azure Active Directory, do not require a specific region.

Cloud Service Models

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) allows customers to create, manage, and customize virtual machines.
Container as a Service (CaaS) allows development teams to host and deploy containerized software packages without managing container engines and orchestration.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is responsible for programming applications and the data, while the vendor manages the rest of the services.
Function as a Service (FaaS) allows developers to upload their code and execute it without managing any of the underlying infrastructure.
Software as a Service (SaaS) is used by customers as a consumer for running applications.
Security as a Service (SaaS) provides cybersecurity services on solutions hosted by the providers.
IaaS allows customers to select the operating system of their choice and manage its settings.
PaaS allows customers to deploy a web application or a database.
FaaS is also known as serverless.
Security as a Service (SaaS) provides cybersecurity services on a subscription basis.

Azure Availability Zones and Sets

Azure availability zones are isolated locations within an Azure region, designed to provide redundancy and fault tolerance.
The purpose of Azure availability sets is to ensure that VMs are deployed across multiple fault domains and update domains.
There are 3 separate availability zones in all enabled regions.
Fault domains in an availability set help reduce the risk of hardware failures.
Update domains in an availability set help reduce the risk of simultaneous updates.
Azure Marketplace is a digital marketplace where customers can find, buy, and deploy software applications and services.
On Azure Marketplace, customers can find software applications, services, and developer tools.
There is no additional cost for using Azure availability sets.
Azure Availability Sets protect VMs from hardware failures and planned maintenance.
Microsoft Azure provides an SLA of 99.95% uptime when you create two or more VMs within an availability set.
