Assessment Workflow

  1. Select scope (subscription or resource group) for Comprehensive Resources Assessment.
  2. Run azqr and capture output artifacts.
  3. Analyze Scan Results and summarize findings and recommendations.
  4. Review Key Vault Expiration Monitoring output for keys, secrets, and certificates.
  5. Classify issues and propose remediation or fix steps for each finding.

Priority Classification

Priority Guidance
Critical Immediate remediation required for high-impact exposure
High Resolve within days to reduce risk
Medium Plan a resolution in the next sprint
Low Track and fix during regular maintenance

Error Handling

Error Message Remediation
Authentication required "Please login" Run az login and retry
Access denied "Forbidden" Confirm permissions and fix role assignments
Missing resource "Not found" Verify subscription and resource group selection

Best Practices

  • Run compliance scans on a regular schedule (weekly or monthly)
  • Track findings over time and verify remediation effectiveness
  • Separate compliance reporting from remediation execution
  • Keep Key Vault expiration policies documented and enforced
