You’ve completed the migration of your workloads to the cloud. This pilot involved a small set of VMs comprising older applications, not considered business-critical. You’ve learned a lot about how the migration process works and are now better prepared to move larger numbers of more complex workloads to Azure.
Moving your workloads to the cloud doesn’t free you from all responsibility for the security of your operating system, applications, and data. Although the Azure platform provides a secure infrastructure, there’s a shared security responsibility model. You need to ensure your Azure environment is secure at the administrative, application, and network layers.
And while securing your environment is an ongoing activity, you should take certain actions right after migration to ensure your workloads are protected and secure.
In this unit, you’ll learn about techniques that you can use to secure your newly migrated VMs immediately after migration. You’ll continue to fine-tune the security controls on your workloads and applications over time, as you endeavor to protect your customers’ data and assets.
