Overview of this book

If you’re looking for an effective way to secure your environment against ransomware attacks, this is the book for you. From teaching you how to monitor security threats to establishing countermeasures to protect against ransomware attacks, Windows Ransomware Detection and Protection has it all covered. The book begins by helping you understand how ransomware attacks work, identifying different attack vectors, and showing you how to build a secure network foundation and Windows environment. You’ll then explore ransomware countermeasures in different segments, such as Identity and Access Management, networking, Endpoint Manager, cloud, and infrastructure, and learn how to protect against attacks. As you move forward, you’ll get to grips with the forensics involved in making important considerations when your system is attacked or compromised with ransomware, the steps you should follow, and how you can monitor the threat landscape for future threats by exploring different online data sources and building processes. By the end of this ransomware book, you’ll have learned how configuration settings and scripts can be used to protect Windows from ransomware attacks with 50 tips on security settings to secure your Windows workload.

Identity and access management in Microsoft Azure

Azure provides a wide range of different security mechanisms. It is important to understand that some services are used to protect the workload itself, such as a virtual machine. There are also services to protect the identity of the administrators or users that have access to Azure to ensure that they are not allowed to set up services that are publicly available or that if they want to perform any administrative action, they need to sign in to the Azure portal with MFA.

When you are interacting with Microsoft Azure either through the web portal, CLI, or SDKs, you are always working with an API layer called Azure Resource Manager, as seen in the following figure. This figure also depicts the other API layer when interacting with Microsoft 365, which is called the Graph API.
