This video goes over how to enable SFTP on a new storage account, then we add local users and connect with SFTP and the WinSCP client.
Continue reading “SFTP with Azure Storage is now Generally Availability”This video goes over how to deploy an Azure VNet Gateway on an existing VNet and enable Point-to-Site (P2S) VPN connections using Azure AD to authenticate the client. A P2S connection allows clients to connect securely to an Azure Gateway and access resources on the private VNet. The video goes on to demonstrate how enable Multi-Factor Authentication with a Conditional Access policy or enforcing MFA per-user.

This video goes over how to deploy an Azure VNet Gateway on an existing VNet and enable Point-to-Site (P2S) VPN connections. A P2S connection allows clients to connect securely to an Azure Gateway and access resources on the private VNet. The video goes on to demonstrate how to create a root certificate and client certificates to use for authentication. After that, configuring the client is demonstrated as well as blocking a client by revoking a certificate.
