Many organizations operate in hybrid environments where on-premises infrastructure coexists with cloud workloads. While this model provides flexibility, it also introduces additional security challenges. Ensuring secure communication between environments and preventing unnecessary public exposure of critical services are essential components of a Zero Trust architecture.
In this session, participants will learn how to design secure hybrid network connectivity using Azure networking services and how to protect Azure PaaS resources by leveraging Azure Private Link and Private Endpoints. These capabilities help organizations reduce their attack surface, protect sensitive workloads, and ensure secure access to cloud resources.
