Enable UK Cyber Essentials Plus compliance controls
To configure your workspace to support processing of data regulated by the UK Cyber Essentials Plus standard, the workspace must have the compliance security profile enabled. Only specific preview features are supported for processing regulated data. For details on the compliance security profile, supported preview features, and supported regions, see Compliance security profile.
You are solely responsible for verifying that sensitive information is never entered in customer-defined input fields, such as workspace names, compute resource names, tags, job names, job run names, network names, credential names, storage account names, and Git repository IDs or URLs. These fields might be stored, processed, or accessed outside the compliance boundary.
To enable UK Cyber Essentials Plus compliance controls, see Configure enhanced security and compliance settings.
