In Azure, you’d typically implement a network security group and a firewall. You’d use subnets to isolate front-end services, including web servers and DNS, and back-end services like databases and storage systems. Network security groups filter internal and external traffic at the network layer. A firewall has more extensive capabilities for network-layer filtering and application-layer filtering. By deploying both network security groups and a firewall, you get improved isolation of resources for a secure network architecture.
