Storage Account Shared Key Access Disabled

Ensures that shared key access is disabled for Microsoft Azure Storage Accounts.

Requests to a storage account can be authorized with either Microsoft Entra credentials or with the account access key using Shared Key authorization. Disabling Shared Key access requires clients to use Microsoft Entra ID, which provides superior security and ease of use compared to Shared Key.

Disable Allow storage account key access from the configuration settings of the storage account.
