zt_ai_005 — Azure ML Workspace uses the default Microsoft-managed key

Summary

Severity: High · Pillar: Data · Chain role: ENABLER

Description

ML Workspaces store training datasets, hyperparameters, and model weights in the associated Storage + Key Vault. By default this encryption uses Microsoft-managed keys. For regulated training data (patient records, financial transactions, proprietary corpora), a customer-managed key via the workspace's encryption property is required to satisfy the HIPAA/SOC 2 auditor that the tenant, not Microsoft, controls key material.
