Security Considerations

While azure.com is an established platform, these capabilities require extra vigilance.

Custom Subdomains

azure.com allows users to create custom addresses like "anything.azure.com". An address like "paypal-secure.azure.com" may look official but is actually controlled by whoever registered that subdomain—not Microsoft Corporation.

Remember: The platform itself is established, but even established platforms can be abused.
