# How to resolve Sprinto check for enabling “Secure transfer required” on Azure
### About:
Sprinto Check: Azure storage account secure transfer required should be enabled
This Sprinto check verifies that the 'Secure Transfer Required' setting is enabled for your Azure storage accounts. This setting enforces the use of secure connections (HTTPS) when transferring data to and from the storage account, ensuring that data in transit is encrypted.
### Purpose:
The primary purpose of enabling 'Secure Transfer Required' is to enhance the security and privacy of data transfers to and from your Azure storage accounts. By enforcing secure connections, you can prevent unauthorized parties from intercepting and potentially compromising your data during transit.
### How to fix:
Follow the below procedure to fix the Sprinto check:
#### Before you begin:
* Ensure you have administrator privilege on the Azure account to modify cloud storage configurations.
#### Enabling “Secure transfer required” on Cloud storage accounts:
1. Log in to [Microsoft Azure Portal](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/get-started/azure-portal) using your credentials.
2. Navigate to the Storage accounts service.
3. Select the account for which you wish to enable configuration.
4. Click Configurations under Settings from the left-side navigation bar.
5. Ensure the “Secure transfer required” setting is Enabled. If it is not, enable it.
6. Click Save to apply the changes.
7. Repeat the above steps for every storage account that stores the organization’s critical data.
Sprinto will detect the configuration change and set the check status to "Passing."
Contact [Sprinto support](mailto:www.support@sprinto.com) if you have any queries related to the check or need assistance.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.sprinto.com/monitors/encryption-and-backup-monitoring/how-to-resolve-sprinto-check-for-enabling-secure-transfer-required-on-azure.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
