Hello,

CIS benchmarks provide two levels of security settings:

Level 1 recommends essential basic security requirements that can be configured on any system and should cause little or no interruption of service or reduced functionality.
Level 2 recommends security settings for environments requiring greater security that could result in some reduced functionality.

So I want to know what level of CIS compliance is considered in CIS Microsoft Azure Foundations Benchmark 1.3.0 initiative?

Thank You.

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    I got confirmation that the built-in CIS benchmark initiatives in Azure cover both - Level 1 and Level 2 controls,

    Please let me know if you have any questions.
