Azure_StorageAccount_10

Ensure that 'Storage service encryption' is enabled for the File Service

Description

With MFA enabled, when a user signs in to an AWS website, they will be prompted for their user name and password as well as for an authentication code from their AWS MFA device. The root account is the most privileged user in an AWS account. MFA adds an extra layer of protection on top of a user name and password.

Remediation

Perform the following in the Azure Console:

  1. Go to Storage Accounts
  2. For each storage account, go to Encryption
  3. Set Storage service encryption to Enabled

Default Values:
By default, Storage service encryption is set to Disabled for file service.
