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.
