Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate AZ-500 Practice Question
You manage an Azure Storage account named mystorage that contains multiple containers. DevOps engineers need read and write access to only the container named source for the next 72 hours from a CI/CD pipeline. The solution must avoid exposing either of the storage account access keys and must rely on Azure AD for authorization. Which access mechanism should you recommend?
A user delegation SAS is signed with Microsoft Entra (Azure AD) credentials obtained by the storage account, so no storage account keys are exposed. It can be scoped to a single container and given an explicit expiration time such as 72 hours. A service SAS and a stored access policy both require the account key for signing, and supplying the key through Key Vault still exposes it to the pipeline, violating the requirement to keep keys hidden.
