About this tag
Azure Firewall is a cloud-native network security service that provides threat protection for workloads running in Microsoft Azure. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover enterprise adoption, such as JetBlue using Azure Firewall for governance and segmentation across virtual machines and Kubernetes clusters. Administrators also address security vulnerabilities like CVE-2025-54914, which involves elevation-of-privilege in Azure Networking, and operational changes such as the deprecation of the Azure Update Delivery service tag, requiring a shift to application rules for Windows updates. Additional topics include cost management updates affecting firewall logging costs, the retirement of default outbound access for Azure VMs, and best practices for securing application networks with subnets, endpoints, DNS, and Terraform. These threads reflect Azure Firewall's role in policy, automation, and audit trail management for enterprise cloud security.
