Description

This offer provides an automated deployment of an Azure Firewall using the Basic SKU, designed to deliver essential network security for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Leveraging Infrastructure as Code (IaC) as JSON templates. The deployment ensures consistency, repeatability, and simplified management. This solution includes a pre-configured firewall policy that allows outbound HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443) traffic to the Internet while blocking all externally initiated traffic, safeguarding your Azure resources from unauthorized access.

Built with Microsoft Partners in mind, this offer aligns with requirements for Solutions Partner Designations, Advanced Specializations, and IP Co-sell motions, enabling partners to streamline customer deployments and enhance their Microsoft partnership benefits.

Target Users

This offer is ideal for SMB IT administrators, DevOps professionals, and cloud architects who require a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy and efficient network security solution within their Azure environment.

Also catering to Microsoft Partners seeking to deliver secure, scalable solutions that meet Microsoft’s taxonomy criteria, enhancing partner-driven customer success and increased performance in Incentive and benefits programs.

Customer Challenges Solved

This offer addresses the critical need for robust yet affordable network security in SMB cloud environments. It mitigates risks such as unauthorized access, data breaches, and external threats by providing a pre-configured, secure-by-default firewall. The automated marketplace deployment reduces setup time and minimizes configuration errors, enabling businesses to focus on operations rather than manual security management.

Additionally, this solution prepares customers for the upcoming Azure environment change, where default Internet access for Azure resources will no longer be provided. By explicitly defining Internet connectivity through the firewall’s pre-configured outbound rules, this offer ensures seamless and secure access to required Internet services while maintaining compliance with the new Azure networking requirements.

For Microsoft Partners, this solution supports compliance with Microsoft’s partnership programs, facilitating faster go-to-market strategies and enhanced collaboration through IP Co-sell opportunities.
