Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
An organization needs to have full control over the encryption keys used to protect their data stored in an Azure Storage account. They decide to use their own keys instead of the default keys provided by Azure. Which action should the administrator perform to meet this requirement?
You selected this option
Enable Azure Disk Encryption on the storage account
You selected this option
Configure the storage account to use customer-managed keys stored in Azure Key Vault
You selected this option
Enable server-side encryption with Microsoft-managed keys
You selected this option
Implement client-side encryption using Azure Storage SDK
To have full control over the encryption keys for data at rest in Azure Storage, the administrator should configure the storage account to use customer-managed keys stored in Azure Key Vault. This approach allows the organization to manage key creation, rotation, and revocation, providing greater control over access to their data. Enabling Azure Disk Encryption is applicable to virtual machine disks, not storage accounts. Implementing client-side encryption requires additional application code and management overhead, and it does not leverage Azure's server-side encryption capabilities. Enabling server-side encryption with Microsoft-managed keys uses the default keys managed by Azure, which does not satisfy the requirement for the organization to use their own keys.
