Implementing encryption

When implementing a Zero Trust approach to cloud resource security, we must adopt the stance of Assumed Breach. This means assuming that bad actors have already compromised our perimeter defenses, and we are at risk of data integrity breaches and data exfiltration. Therefore, we must provide mechanisms that ensure our data’s integrity remains and our data is unreadable and unusable in the case of exfiltration.

This recipe will teach you to secure your storage account data at rest through encryption using Azure Storage Service Encryption.

In this task, we will look at the customer-managed keys encryption type; by default, storage accounts are encrypted by Microsoft-managed keys with no configuration required.

We will look at how encryption can be set for existing storage accounts.
