Cyber-Resilience Strategy Assessment in Azure

This guide outlines the implementation of a cyber-resilience strategy in Azure, emphasizing a data-centric approach. It begins by assessing an organization's current cyber threat readiness, focusing on data location, detection of user behavior anomalies, and the ability to create immutable snapshots for rapid recovery. The document also evaluates the effectiveness of existing data security policies, the implementation of a Zero Trust architecture, and the monitoring capabilities across on-premises and cloud applications. Furthermore, it addresses internal threats by examining the existence of a business continuity plan and the monitoring of IT environments for anomalies. The guide provides a scoring system to assess the organization's preparedness against various threats, including external, internal, and environmental factors. It concludes with recommendations based on the scoring results, suggesting next steps for enhancing cyber resilience in Azure.
