zt_data_023 — Synapse workspace allows public SQL endpoint access

Summary

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

Description

Synapse workspaces with public network access enabled expose the serverless + dedicated SQL endpoints to the internet. SQL Auth or Entra ID tokens then become the only barrier. Disable public network access and restrict access to the workspace managed VNet plus explicit private endpoints.
