Zero-Trust Network Perimeter — Azure Architecture Template
Identity-verified, firewall-inspected path from Front Door edge to a segmented workload with SIEM-backed telemetry.
Why this architecture works
- Never trust the network: every request is authenticated against the directory before reaching the app
- Traffic passes two inspection layers — WAF at the edge and Premium Firewall inside — before any workload
- NSGs and application security groups micro-segment east-west traffic by workload role, not IP math
- All secrets, keys and certificates live in Key Vault with access policies scoped per identity
- Firewall, app and identity logs converge in Log Analytics and are correlated by Sentinel analytics rules
