Control: Azure > CIS v4.0 > 06 - Identity Services > 06.24 - Ensure that a custom role is assigned permissions for administering resource locks

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 2

Resource locking is a powerful protection mechanism that can prevent inadvertent modification or deletion of resources within Azure subscriptions and resource groups, and it is a recommended NIST configuration.

Given that the resource lock functionality is outside of standard Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), it would be prudent to create a resource lock administrator role to prevent inadvertent unlocking of resources.
