Azure Data Factory (V2) configured with overly permissive network access

Description

By ensuring that your Azure Data factory is not public, you can help protect your data from unauthorized access or tampering. Public Azure Data factory instances are accessible over the internet, which can make them vulnerable to external threats such as hackers or malware. By making it private, you can help ensure that only authorized users can access the data.

Code Example

go
resource "azurerm_data_factory" "example" {
              ...
+             public_network_enabled = false
            }
