Overview of this book

This Learning Path helps you understand microservices architecture and leverage various services of Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to build, deploy, and maintain highly scalable enterprise-grade applications. You will learn to select an appropriate Azure backend structure for your solutions and work with its toolkit and managed apps to share your solutions with its service catalog. As you progress through the Learning Path, you will study Azure Cloud Services, Azure-managed Kubernetes, and Azure Container Services deployment techniques. To apply all that you’ve understood, you will build an end-to-end Azure system in scalable, decoupled tiers for an industrial bakery with three business domains. Toward the end of this Learning Path, you will build another scalable architecture using Azure Service Bus topics to send orders between decoupled business domains with scalable worker roles processing these orders. By the end of this Learning Path, you will be comfortable in using development, deployment, and maintenance processes to build robust cloud solutions on Azure. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Learn Microsoft Azure by Mohamed Wali • Implementing Azure Solutions - Second Edition by Florian Klaffenbach, Oliver Michalski, Markus Klein • Microservices with Azure by Namit Tanasseri and Rahul Rai

Chapter 19. Securing and Managing Your Microservices

Security is an integral part of your Microservices architecture. Due to many services at play in a Microservices application, the exploitable surface area of the application is higher than traditional applications. It is necessary that organizations developing Microservices adopt the Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle (SDL).

Using the SDL process, developers can reduce the number of vulnerabilities in software while shipping it using agile methods. At its core, SDL defines tasks which can be mapped to the agile development process. Since SDL tasks do not realize functional objectives, they don't require a lot of documentation.

To implement SDL in conjunction with agile methodology, it is recommended that SDL tasks be divided into three categories:

  1. Every sprint requirements: The SDL tasks in this category are important to implement therefore they need to be completed in every sprint. If these tasks are not completed, then the sprint...
