In this lesson, you'll learn about Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), which is a key feature to manage permissions and access to your cloud resources efficiently.
Introduction
When you have multiple IT and engineering teams working in your cloud environment, managing their access to resources can become complex. The principle of least privilege suggests granting only the necessary permissions needed to complete a task. Azure RBAC helps in managing these permissions efficiently by assigning roles to users, groups, and services.
What is Azure RBAC?
Azure RBAC allows you to control access to Azure resources through role assignments. Each role has a set of permissions that define what operations can be performed. You can use built-in roles or create custom roles based on your needs.
Key Concepts
How RBAC Works
RBAC is applied at different levels of scope to control access efficiently:
For example, assigning the Owner role at the subscription level grants full control over all resources within that subscription.
Enforcing RBAC
Azure RBAC is enforced through Azure Resource Manager, which processes all management operations for Azure resources. When you perform an action, Resource Manager checks your permissions based on the assigned roles. If your role includes the required permissions, the action is allowed.
