Council hears that cloud offers security benefits and concludes Microsoft is responsible for everything the city does in Azure. Which clarification is accurate?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Security features in the cloud are like better locks and cameras on the building — helpful, but you still decide who gets keys and what goes in the safe. Shared responsibility does not vanish because Microsoft runs big datacenters. Benefits and customer duties travel together.
Full Explanation
Azure Fundamentals pairs security-and-governance benefits with the shared responsibility model. Provider investments and platform capabilities improve the security posture available to customers, but customers retain responsibilities that typically include identity, access control, and data classification depending on the service type. Claiming the provider owns every duty misstates both the benefit and the model.
