Azure VMware Solution Security: Protect Your Cloud Workloads in 2025


Migrating workloads to Azure through Azure VMware Solution (AVS) offers cloud scalability with the comfort of a familiar VMware setup — but it also demands strong security.

To secure your AVS environment, start by understanding the shared responsibility model — Microsoft secures the infrastructure, but you’re responsible for your workloads. Protect against misconfigurations with resource locks, Azure Policy, and Azure Arc.

Ensure guest OS security using Microsoft Defender for Cloud, regular patching, and vulnerability scans. Encrypt data at rest and in transit with BitLocker, vSAN encryption, and TDE.

Prevent network intrusions with NSX-T micro-segmentation, tiered routers, and IDPS. Strengthen access with RBAC, MFA, and Azure AD. Finally, monitor and automate security with Microsoft Sentinel and Defender for Cloud.

Security is not optional — it’s essential.
