We are pleased to present our "Comprehensive Azure and AD Audit Plus Deployment" report, detailing our work on configuring and testing the Manage Engine tool: AD Audit Plus. Our efforts aim to create a reliable and compliant cloud infrastructure ready to support our organisation’s needs and future growth.
In this project, our primary aim is to configure and test the Manage Engine tool: AD Audit Plus. To achieve this, we need to set up a Windows Server virtual machine on Microsoft Azure and perform all necessary security configurations.
We start by creating a Windows Server virtual machine, configuring network security groups (NSGs), and securing Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to ensure a safe and efficient environment. Following this, we set up an Azure Event Hub for efficient log management and established a domain controller to manage network operations.
Additionally, we implement advanced audit policies, enable HTTPS for AD Audit Plus, and configure a secure SMTP server with SSH. These steps are crucial for enhancing network security, ensuring reliable communication, and enabling comprehensive monitoring and analysis through AD Audit Plus.
By following this structured approach, we aim to create a robust and secure IT infrastructure that meets industry standards and regulatory requirements. This setup will enable us to effectively monitor, manage, and protect our IT environment, providing a solid foundation for future growth and success.
