Azure security recommendations.

I wanted to learn more about Azure and more specifically, Azure security and wanted to know what tools are available for this?  More in the CBT area...

I also wanted to know the best practices as far as creating or bringing in playbooks with regards to security.  Looking at the recommendations section, within Azure,  we seem to need a lot of help.  The recommendations are as follows...

Enable MFA for accounts with owner permissions on your...

Install monitoring agent on your VM.

apply a just-in-time network access control
provision an azure AD administrator for SQL server

and so and so forth.  I has thinking that I could possible take care of most of these alerts/suggestions by having a playbook.  I'm not very familiar with Azure so any recommendations would help.

Thanks
