Azure penetration testing is the process of simulating real attacks to secure data and applications in hosted in Microsoft Azure. As more than 1 billion people use Azure for business operations and storage, it is a major target for cybercriminals. Regular penetration testing can identify security issues like misconfigurations and poor access management. Azure penetration testing protects sensitive data, helps meet compliance needs, builds customer trust, and enhances overall security posture. Popular Azure pen testing tools include Azucar, Nessus, and Metasploit. If you want to conduct it for

Azure Penetration Testing – • A Complete Guide
Introduction Microsoft Azure penetration testing, or Azure pentesting involves simulating real attacks to find security vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit for data breaches and other cyberattacks. Organizations can employ third-party security firms with penetration testers to hack their own cloud environment before a real attacker does. As a result, it helps them find out where the security flaws lie and fix them immediately. Pen testers (also called “ethical hackers”) are cybersecurity professionals who are experts in coding skills and vulnerability testing. Azure penetration testing should be done regularly (1- 2 times a year) to secure the data and applications in the cloud completely. As of now, 68% of organizations globally are performing Azure cloud penetration testing to secure their data and resources.
