Web Application Scanning in Azure

Good Morning Qualys Community,

 

We are in the process of setting up Web Application Scanning in our Data Centre environment and in Azure.

 

As part of some penetration testing a couple of years ago, we had been asked to notify Microsoft that a penetration test was taking place.

 

For those of you who are already scanning Web Applications in Azure, is there a process in place where you have had to notify Microsoft of Web Application Scanning prior to the scans taking place?

 

Thanks,

Mark

Correct Answer

According to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/security/azure-security-pen-testing:

"As of June 15, 2017, Microsoft no longer requires pre-approval to conduct a penetration tests against Azure resources."
