azure_security_center_policies resource

Use the azure_security_center_policies InSpec audit resource to test the properties and configuration of multiple Azure Policies.

Azure REST API version, endpoint, and HTTP client parameters

This resource interacts with API versions supported by the resource provider. You can specify the api_version as a resource parameter to use a specific version of the Azure REST API. If you don’t specify an API version, this resource uses the latest version available. For more information about API versioning, see the azure_generic_resource.

By default, this resource uses the azure_cloud global endpoint and default HTTP client settings. You can override these settings if you need to connect to a different Azure environment (such as Azure Government or Azure China). For more information about configuration options, see the resource pack README.
