Kingdom: Security Features

Software security is not security software. Here we're concerned with topics like authentication, access control, confidentiality, cryptography, and privilege management.

Azure ARM Misconfiguration: Insufficient Application Insights Logging

Abstract
The template defines a logging configuration with an insufficient audit retention period.
Explanation
A short retention period reduces the amount of log information that the organization can consult in the event of an investigation. Industry standards recommend different retention periods depending on the type of data and the legal obligations required for the organization.
