AZURE BL 1-8 Virtual machines OS disks are encrypted using CMK

Description 

Virtual Machine OS and data disks are encrypted with platform-managed keys by default. Companies must use customer-managed keys (CMK) to achieve more flexibility for choosing when to rotate their keys per their policies, prevent managed disks from accessing keys to cause a VM to fail, and track key usage through Key Vault monitoring.

 

Remediation Steps
