Enable Storage Account Data Protection
Pre-requisite:- Azure
Azure is Microsoft’s cloud computing platform which helps to build solutions to meet business goals. It supports infrastructure (IaaS), platform (PaaS), and software-as-a-service (SaaS) computing services.
Here in this article, we will show you how to enable data protection for blobs and containers in an Azure Storage account. You can enable data protection either while creating a storage account or after creating a storage account. Here we are going to perform steps for an existing storage account.
Note: To implementing the steps requires contributor or storage contributor access to the target resource.
Implementation
Step 1: Log in to Azure Portal
Step 2: Access the azure storage accounts >> select the storage account which wishes to enable the data protection
Step 3: After selecting your storage account from the left pane scroll down to Data Management and select the Data protection
Step 4: Now in the Data Protection Section check in Enable soft delete for blobs and Enable soft delete for containers. Give a number of days to keep deleted blobs and also containers of your choice. By default, you get 7-day protection when enabled.
Step 5: Once you are done with settings >> click on save to continue the changes. That’s it now you have enabled data protection for an existing storage account.
