AKS Cluster Managed Identity Enabled

Ensures a system or user assigned managed identity is enabled to authenticate to AKS Cluster.

Maintaining cloud connection credentials in code is a security risk. Credentials should never appear on developer workstations and should not be checked into source control. Managed identities for Azure resources provides Azure services with a managed identity in Azure AD which can be used to authenticate to any service that supports Azure AD authentication, without having to include any credentials in code.

Enable system or user-assigned identities for all AKS Clusters.
