Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned microsoft/azure-skills at 9bb168c343.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The Microsoft Azure Compliance skill helps AI agents understand and enforce compliance standards within Microsoft Azure environments. It provides guidance on regulatory requirements, audit readiness, and policy enforcement to ensure cloud workloads meet industry-specific regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO.

When to use it

  • You need to ensure your Azure resources comply with legal or organizational policies.
  • Preparing for an external audit of your cloud infrastructure.
  • Implementing new compliance frameworks across multiple Azure subscriptions.
  • Automating checks to identify non-compliant configurations in real time.

Key capabilities

  • Identifies regulatory requirements relevant to Azure workloads
  • Provides policy templates aligned with common compliance standards
  • Monitors and reports on resource compliance status
  • Integrates with Azure Policy for automated enforcement

Example prompts

  • "Check if my Azure storage accounts comply with GDPR regulations."
  • "Generate a compliance report for HIPAA in my Azure environment."
  • "Set up automatic alerts for non-compliant virtual machines in Azure."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure you have proper permissions to access Azure resources and audit logs.
  • Compliance requirements may vary by region, so verify local regulations apply to your use case.
