Microsoft Azure

Overview

Turbot is deeply integrated with Microsoft Azure.

• Turbot provides dozens of Azure mods, with policies and controls for Azure resource types.
• Turbot's extensive IAM integration allows you to federate Azure access and manage your Azure permissions through Turbot.
• Turbot's event handlers/pollers keep Turbot up to date as Azure resources are created, destroyed, and modified allowing policy enforcement in real time.
• Turbot shows all activity in your Azure subscriptions - you can quickly see what happened, who made the change, when the activity occurred, and exactly what changed.

Getting started with Turbot for Azure

1. Import Azure Resources. These are in the recommended order to import, but not all sections will apply to all organizations:

   • Import Azure Tenant
   • Import Azure Active Directory
   • Import Azure Management Group
   • Import Azure Subscription
2. Set up the Azure Real-Time Events to keep Turbot CMDB up to date
3. Enable Azure Services that you will use
4. Configure Permissions Policies to allow Turbot to manage Azure permissions for your users
