This minimizes exposure of the resources in case of user/service account compromise.", "Recommendation": "Remove any excessive privileges granted on the Redis Cache. Assign 'Redis Cache Contributor' RBAC role to developers who manages Redis Cache configurations. Run command: Remove-AzureRmRoleAssignment -SignInName '{signInName}' -Scope '{scope}' -RoleDefinitionName '{role definition name}'. Run 'Get-Help Remove-AzureRmRoleAssignment -full' for more help.

A period of 1 year is typical for several compliance requirements as well.", "Recommendation": "Run command: Set-AzureRmDiagnosticSetting -ResourceId {'ResourceId'} -Enable `$true -StorageAccountId '{StorageAccountId}' -RetentionInDays $($this.ControlSettings.Diagnostics_RetentionPeriod_Min) -RetentionEnabled `$true", "Tags": [ "SDL", "TCP", "Manual", "Audit", "Diagnostics" ], "Enabled": true }, { "ControlID": "Azure_RedisCache_AuthZ_Configure_IP_Range", "Description": "Configure Redis Cache firewall settings for additional protection", "Id": "RedisCache130", "ControlSeverity": "Medium", "Automated": "Yes", "MethodName": "CheckRedisCacheFirewallIPAddressRange", "Rationale": "Using the firewall feature ensures that access to the data or the service is restricted to a specific set/group of clients. While this may not be feasible in all scenarios, when it can be used, it provides an extra layer of access control protection for critical assets.", "Recommendation": "Enable firewall and add rules specifying permitted IPs/ranges. Do not add IP range $($this.ControlSettings.UniversalIPRange) as that allows access to all possible IPs.
