Best for

Azure security and governance teams

What you get

Run a broad assessment + Audit Key Vault expiration

Main limitation

It assesses configuration and best practices; it is not a legal opinion, formal certification, or guarantee of regulatory compliance.

First risk

Sensitive audit output or false assurance. Assessment exports can expose resource and secret metadata, while a clean scan can still miss organization-specific controls. Protect reports, document scope and exclusions, and require expert review before compliance claims.

EVIDENCE FRESHNESS

Three checks, kept separate

A recent source check is not a runtime test or security audit.

IN PLAIN ENGLISH

What it does—and when it fits

Azure Compliance runs configuration and security assessments through Azure Quick Review, Key Vault expiration inspection, and targeted Resource Graph queries. It helps identify best-practice gaps, misconfigured or orphaned resources, expired or unbounded keys, secrets, and certificates, while requiring authenticated read access to the selected Azure scope.

This is aimed at Azure security and governance teams. Compare the examples below with your task, then review the limitations, permissions, and risks before installing.

What you get
  • Run a broad assessmentUse Azure Quick Review to inspect resource configuration against documented best practices.
  • Audit Key Vault expirationFind expired, soon-expiring, or non-expiring keys, secrets, and certificates.
  • Investigate compliance gapsUse focused Resource Graph evidence to review misconfiguration and orphan candidates.
What makes it different
  • This profile is manually organized around the current upstream SKILL.md workflow.
  • The capability boundary remains explicitly tied to microsoft/azure-skills.
  • Core uses, limitations, and risks are separated for pre-install review.

INSTALL BY AGENT

Choose your Agent

Paths come from official Agent docs or the universal installer behind skills.sh. Compatibility still follows this Skill's record.

Native

This Skill's current record explicitly names this Agent. Still inspect scripts, permissions, and external dependencies first.

Project install (recommended)
npx skills add https://github.com/microsoft/azure-skills --skill azure-compliance --agent claude-code
Personal install
npx skills add https://github.com/microsoft/azure-skills --skill azure-compliance --agent claude-code -g

Project install stays with this repository for team sharing. Personal install adds -g and works across repositories.

BEFORE YOU USE IT

Risks to review before use

High

Sensitive audit output or false assurance

Assessment exports can expose resource and secret metadata, while a clean scan can still miss organization-specific controls. Protect reports, document scope and exclusions, and require expert review before compliance claims.

Medium

Upstream instruction drift

Behavior can change with upstream updates. Record the commit used for important workflows and review updates before adoption.

SECURITY

What the permission profile means

  • Declared access remains governed by the current upstream SKILL.md and runtime requests.
  • Treat repository files, web content, and tool output as untrusted input.
  • SkillSignal has not independently executed or security-audited this package; external skills.sh labels are not SkillSignal certification.

Not a security certification. External ratings are attributed references. SkillSignal has not independently executed or security-reviewed this Skill.
