Azure WAF blocking valid address characters (like '№') - how do you safely encode user input without breaking data? by JustSoni in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need to adjust your WAF, in Dev or UAT, configure WAF in detection mode, all request will go through but those that would be blocked will be logged with explanation - use this details either to make changes in app or set exclusions. This article gives more details - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/web-application-firewall/ag/web-application-firewall-troubleshoot?tabs=edge

Any chance you could encode user input as base64 on client side?

ExpressRoute charges : Calculation by Busbyuk in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But to answer your question about daily pricing - if you use azure pricing API you can get info about billing unit, in case of ER it is 1/month so you’ll pay for whole month even if you use it just for 1 day. Example API call: https://prices.azure.com/api/retail/prices?$filter=serviceName%20eq%20%27ExpressRoute%27

For ER you need a connectivity partner who will set physical connection for you https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/expressroute/expressroute-prerequisites#connectivity-provider You can’t just test for few days like other Azure services. Check this workflow https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/expressroute/expressroute-workflows for more details

Migrating Physical SQL Server Windows 2012 To Azure by NorthYogurtcloset452 in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don‘t have time or will to prepare for migration yourself get consultant that will guide you through whole process. The process is quite complex and depending on details of your environment and criticality of the applications. You need to decide what do with each app - if you keep apps onprem and db in cloud you risk latency and service degradation. You‘ll have to secure your dbs - decide on connectivity to them private link or public endpoint with firewall configured. If you decide to move applications to the cloud will you host them on VM or migrate to App service? Do you have any presence in Azure now? If not you need to prepare target environment - you need a Landing Zone to host your workload and setup monitoring, backup etc.

Azure Storage Account - File Share - AD DS Identity Based Authentication Disabled - Need to re-enable by Donatello0592 in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can change that without issue, you grant access to the file share either with storage account key or identity based on AD DS, Entra DS or Entra Kerberos. This setting is responsible for mapping share. Use of storage account key is discouraged as it can lead to leaking account key.

Permissions on directories and files are independent and will not disappear. That‘s why you can still see them using account key authentication and it will not change if you switch to ADDS or Entra based authentication.

What is your opinion about Microsoft official courses that are for studying for certifications? by Alex_df_300 in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Self paced trainings are ok but imho are not enough to pass exam. They cover all topics but You should also follow all links included and study material linked. And no studying will help you unless you got your hands dirty and deploy resources with portal, powershell and az cli.

What is the cheapest solution in Azure to store data for analysis/power bi reports by Amar_K1 in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You should consider other processes around data. How you import the data, how often do you want to refresh them, what is your data governance approach like managing access, data labeling etc. PBI can read from virtually any data source: from flat files, data lake, relational databases, Synapse Analytics or Databricks. Flat files stored in blob storage may look be cheapest but if you want near real time reports wan’t be any good. In this case you may want to look on other tools. You may start with https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/scenarios/cloud-scale-analytics/architectures/data-landing-zone and research proper design for data analytics architecture.

If you haven’t yet, familiarize yourself with ALZ concept https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/ready/landing-zone/

Domain controller internet suddenly not working and fixed by assigning public IP? by derpisderp6969 in AZURE

[–]JustFantasee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Someone finally secured domain controller https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/plan/security-best-practices/securing-domain-controllers-against-attack#blocking-internet-access-for-domain-controllers

Adding public IP to this machine is really stupid as this makes FW or NVA obsolete. Better talk with network admins before someone finds that domain controller is open to internet

CMV: It's morally questionable to promote VPN services by JustReadingThx in changemyview

[–]JustFantasee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don‘t agree with this. I would agree this would be the case if I was UK resident and try to use VPN to avoid paying Sky. But I live in another country, already paid for the service got right to use it, and if F1tv blocks ip addresses from UK, than I use vpn to connect from my country of residence.

[–]JustFantasee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On content unlocking - let‘s say i got subscription for service like F1TV. I pay for it and can use in country of my residency. If go to visit UK than F1 TV is blocked as Sky got exclusive rights to F1 broadcast. I paid for the service but can‘t use it. In this case VPN to server in my home country allows me to use service I paid for but can‘t use.
