Sprinto check: Ensure Default Network Access Rule for Storage Accounts is Set to Deny

The above-mentioned Sprinto check verifies that the default network access rule for your Azure storage accounts is set to "Deny." This setting controls the default behavior for network access to the storage account.

Purpose

Setting the default network access rule to "Deny" helps prevent unauthorized access to your storage accounts, reducing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive data.
