Security patterns

Summary

This chapter introduced Azure security patterns. It started with a discussion of why the concept of patterns is so essential. It then introduced a few of the most common patterns to secure your solution on Azure.

This list is limited, and you might be able to identify one or two significant ones that are missing. The intent here is not to be comprehensive but to introduce you to an approach for building secure software on Azure based on the adoption of renowned patterns.

The next chapter goes beyond this to introduce a different way of thinking about security and designing secure solutions: threat modeling.
