Create an Azure storage accounts baseline

An Azure Storage account provides a unique namespace where you can store and access your Azure Storage data objects.

Azure Storage account security recommendations

The following sections describe the Azure Storage recommendations that are in CIS Microsoft Azure Foundations Security Benchmark v. 3.0.0. Included with each recommendation are the basic steps to complete in the Azure portal. You should complete these steps for your own subscription and by using your own resources to validate each security recommendation. Keep in mind that Level 2 options might restrict some features or activity, so carefully consider which security options you decide to enforce.
