Oracle Security Zones is a service that helps you enforce best practices and prevent misconfigurations on your OCI resources by applying predefined policies and controls. Some of the benefits of using Security Zones are:
Encrypt storage resources with a customer-managed key: Security Zones require that all storage resources, such as block volumes, boot volumes, file systems, and object storage buckets, are encrypted with a customer-managed key from Vault. This ensures that you have full control over the encryption and decryption of your data at rest.
Deny public access to OCI resources, such as databases and object storage buckets: Security Zones prevent you from creating or updating OCI resources that have public access enabled, such as databases and object storage buckets that are accessible from the internet. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access or data leakage.
