For added security, only install organization-approved extensions on VMs.
Azure virtual machine extensions are small applications that provide post-deployment configuration and automation tasks on Azure virtual machines. These extensions run with administrative privileges and could potentially access anything on a virtual machine. The Azure Portal and community provide several such extensions. Each organization should carefully evaluate these extensions and ensure that only those that are approved for use are actually implemented. |

Manages Changes Throughout the System Life Cycle — A process for managing
system changes throughout the life cycle of the system and its components (infrastructure, data, software, and procedures) is used to support system availability and
processing integrity.
• Authorizes Changes — A process is in place to authorize system changes prior to
development.
• Designs and Develops Changes — A process is in place to design and develop system changes.
• Documents Changes — A process is in place to document system changes to support ongoing maintenance of the system and to support system users in performing
their responsibilities.
• Tracks System Changes — A process is in place to track system changes prior to
implementation.

• Tests System Changes — A process is in place to test system changes prior to implementation.
• Approves System Changes — A process is in place to approve system changes prior
to implementation.
• Deploys System Changes — A process is in place to implement system changes.
• Identifies and Evaluates System Changes — Objectives affected by system changes
are identified and the ability of the modified system to meet the objectives is evaluated throughout the system development life cycle.
• Identifies Changes in Infrastructure, Data, Software, and Procedures Required to
Remediate Incidents — Changes in infrastructure, data, software, and procedures
required to remediate incidents to continue to meet objectives are identified and the
change process is initiated upon identification.
• Creates Baseline Configuration of IT Technology — A baseline configuration of IT
