An organization is planning to migrate its legacy intranet document management system, which is currently hosted on several Azure Virtual Machines (IaaS) with an on-VM SQL Server database. The security architecture team is comparing two migration paths:
- Path X (PaaS): Replatform the web tier to Azure App Service and migrate the database to Azure SQL Database.
- Path Y (SaaS): Replace the entire system with Microsoft 365 SharePoint Online.
Which of the following statements correctly describes the shift in responsibility for network controls and operating system patching when moving from the current IaaS state to either Path X or Path Y?
- AFor Path X, the operating system patching remains the sole responsibility of the customer, while network controls transfer entirely to Microsoft. For Path Y, network controls become a shared responsibility.
- BFor both Path X and Path Y, network controls remain the sole responsibility of the customer, while operating system patching is shared between Microsoft and the customer.
- For Path X, the responsibility for operating system patching transfers entirely to Microsoft, while network controls become a shared responsibility. For Path Y, the responsibility for both operating system patching and network controls transfers entirely to Microsoft.Cevap
- DFor both Path X and Path Y, Microsoft assumes sole responsibility for database engine configuration and network controls, while the customer retains responsibility for operating system patching under Path X.
Cevap
For Path X (PaaS), the responsibility for operating system patching transfers entirely to Microsoft, while network controls become a shared responsibility. For Path Y (SaaS), the responsibility for both operating system patching and network controls transfers entirely to Microsoft.
Under the Azure Shared Responsibility Model, transitioning from Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to Platform as a Service (PaaS) or Software as a Service (SaaS) shifts various management tasks to Microsoft. In PaaS (Path X), Microsoft manages the physical infrastructure, virtualization, and the operating system (including OS patching), while network controls (like configuring virtual network integration or IP restrictions) are a shared responsibility between the customer and Microsoft. In SaaS (Path Y), Microsoft manages the entire stack except for information/data, devices, and accounts/identities, meaning both operating system patching and network controls are fully managed by Microsoft.
