Description
To enhance security and meet regulatory requirements, it is essential to ensure that unattached disks in a subscription are encrypted using a Customer Managed Key (CMK). By default, managed disks are encrypted with a Platform Managed Key (PMK), but utilizing CMK can provide an additional level of security.
Encrypting unattached managed disks ensures that the entire content can only be accessed with the corresponding key, safeguarding the volume from unauthorized reads. It is crucial to consider the risk of compromised user accounts with administrative access to the VM service, as they can potentially mount or attach these data disks. By encrypting the disks with CMK, the risk of sensitive information disclosure and tampering is mitigated, providing a higher level of security.
