zt_data_025 — Stream Analytics job lacks customer-managed key encryption

Summary

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

Description

Stream Analytics jobs buffer event-stream data on Microsoft-managed disks during processing. Without a customer-managed key configured in the job's identity + keyVaultProperties, that buffer is encrypted with Microsoft keys by default. For regulated streams (payment events, health telemetry, financial trades), the SOC 2 + HIPAA + PCI auditors require the customer to own the encryption key material.
