What is Azure Data Lake Store Security?
- Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) provides several security measures to ensure the protection of data stored in the lake:
- Azure Active Directory (AAD) Integration: ADLS integrates with AAD for authentication and authorization, allowing administrators to manage access to data in the lake.
- Role-based access control (RBAC): ADLS provides RBAC, which allows administrators to assign roles to users and groups, granting them specific permissions to access and modify data in the lake.
- Encryption: ADLS supports encryption of data at rest using Azure Storage Service Encryption and encryption in transit using SSL/TLS.
- Data Protection: ADLS provides data protection mechanisms such as soft-delete and versioning to help prevent data loss and enable data recovery.
- Auditing: ADLS integrates with Azure Monitor to provide auditing and logging of activity in the lake, enabling administrators to monitor and audit access to data in the lake.
- Compliance: ADLS is compliant with various industry standards and regulations, including ISO 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2, and HIPAA.
