I start by creating a resource group, setting up a private network, and configuring a public IP with secure shell access on port 22. I encountered some issues with the image name, but I resolved it by using the full Azure URN for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, which is a best practice for consistency. After successfully deploying the VM, I demonstrate hardening the system by applying updates, enabling the UFW firewall, and enforcing key-based SSH logins. I encourage you to follow along and implement these steps in your own Azure environment.
