Authorization

• Enforce least privilege on Fabric items
• Separate dev/prod workspaces

Input Validation & Output Encoding

• Validate all untrusted input at boundaries
• Sanitize or encode output where appropriate

Secrets Management

• Store secrets in Azure Key Vault, never in code or config files
• Use Fabric-managed connections where possible

Logging & Auditing

• Log security-relevant events
• Avoid logging sensitive data

Common Vulnerabilities

• Never embed connection strings in notebooks
• Validate JSON payloads in streaming pipelines
