Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 1

Storage account keys provide full access to storage account data. Disabling shared key access forces all requests to be authorized using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), which provides more fine-grained access control and audit capabilities.

Disabling shared key access improves security by enforcing Azure AD authentication, enabling better access control through RBAC, and providing detailed audit logs of who accessed what data.
