Explanation in Terraform Registry

Manages a File Share within Azure Storage.

Note: The storage share supports two storage tiers: premium and standard. Standard file shares are created in general purpose (GPv1 or GPv2) storage accounts and premium file shares are created in FileStorage storage accounts. For further information, refer to the section "What storage tiers are supported in Azure Files?" of documentation.

Tips: Best Practices for The Other Azure Storage Resources

In addition to the azurerm_storage_account, Azure Storage has the other resources that should be configured for security reasons. Please check some examples of those resources and precautions.

azurerm_storage_account

Ensure to use HTTPS connections

It is better to use HTTPS instead of HTTP, which could be vulnerable to person-in-the-middle attacks.

azurerm_storage_account_network_rules

Ensure to allow Trusted Microsoft Services to bypass

It is better to allow Trusted Microsoft Services to bypass. They are not able to access storage account unless rules are set to allow them explicitly.
