Security Considerations

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

File Hosting

azure.net allows users to upload and share files. Any file you download was uploaded by another user—not the platform operator. Scan downloads with antivirus software and only download from sources you trust.

Identity Provider

azure.net provides "Sign in with..." authentication for third-party websites. Attackers create fake login pages that look identical to the real one. Always check the URL bar shows the exact correct domain before entering your password.

Document Hosting

azure.net hosts documents and pages shared via links. Because the domain is trusted, links pass through email spam filters easily. Attackers exploit this to host fake invoices, login pages, or malware download prompts.

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