Study Notes
- Chapter 2 of the text focuses on implementing security solutions in hybrid scenarios.
- Lesson 1 introduces Network Security Groups (NSGs) and their role in controlling network traffic in Azure.
- NSGs filter inbound and outbound network traffic.
- Security rules for NSGs include properties like name, priority, source/destination, protocol, direction, and action.
- NSGs can be applied to both subnets and network interfaces, and the same NSG can be applied to multiple resources for administrative efficiency.
- Lesson 2 discusses Azure Security Center, its capabilities, and its benefits in improving security positions, tracking compliance, and protecting environments and data within Azure.
- Lesson 3 covers Azure Automation and Update Management, which helps update Azure VMs and includes features like reviewing update status and defining queries based on computer groups.
- Inbound and outbound traffic can be secured using various rule types such as program rules, port rules, predefined rules, and custom rules.
- Windows Defender Firewall can be administered with Windows Server IaaS VMs in Azure.
- Filtering options include NAT rules, network rules, and application rules for outbound and inbound connectivity.
- NAT rules enable inbound internet connectivity, and network rules and application rules can be used in combination with priority order for inbound and outbound connectivity.
