Security Center Recommendations is a feature in Azure Security Center that provides actionable security recommendations to improve the overall security posture of your cloud environment. These recommendations are based on best practices, compliance requirements, and machine learning algorithms, and are tailored to your specific environment.
Examples of Security Center Recommendations include:
- Enable MFA on all accounts – This recommendation advises enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all user accounts in order to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to your resources.
- Enable disk encryption for virtual machines – This recommendation advises enabling disk encryption for your virtual machines to protect against data theft in the event of a security breach.
- Enable network security groups (NSGs) – This recommendation advises enabling NSGs to control inbound and outbound traffic to your virtual networks and subnets.
- Remove unused public IP addresses – This recommendation advises removing public IP addresses that are no longer in use to reduce the attack surface of your environment.
- Monitor failed sign-in attempts – This recommendation advises configuring alert rules to monitor failed sign-in attempts in order to detect and respond to potential attacks.
By implementing these recommendations, you can enhance the security of your cloud environment and reduce the risk of security breaches. Security Center Recommendations can be accessed through the Azure Security Center portal or via the Azure Security Center API.
