[Rescheduled] Security in Azure – 2 topics: Management Group, policies;

Please note that this event was reschedule.

Title 1: Protect your web applications and web APIs with Azure Application Gateway and Web Application Firewall (WAF)
Description:
The right cloud architecture frees you to focus on your applications instead of your cloud infrastructure. Learn best practices on how to build your own multi-layer application protection strategy for your Azure resources using Azure’s cloud-native network and application security services. The focus of the talk will be on Azure Application Gateway (AppGW) and Web Application Firewall (WAF) to protect your web applications and APIs on Azure from common threats, exploits and volumetric attacks.

Azure AppGW is a web traffic load balancer that enables you to manage traffic to your web applications. It provides application delivery controller (ADC) as a service, offering various Layer 7 load-balancing capabilities allowing you to make routing decisions based on additional attributes of an HTTP request, such as URI path or host headers. Azure WAF filters, monitors, and blocks HTTP traffic to and from a web application.
