Imagine you’re managing a critical project that involves several cloud resources. Your team is working at full speed, tweaking configurations and creating resources to meet demands. Then, one day, someone mistakenly deletes a critical server. The result? Downtime, chaos, and potentially huge financial losses.
Scenarios like this can happen in environments where multiple people work on cloud platforms. Accidental changes to vital resources can happen. This is where Azure Locks step in to help protect your resources.
Think of an Azure Lock as a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door of a hotel room. It indicates that no one should enter or disturb the room, preventing unnecessary interruptions. Similarly, Azure Locks help prevent unintended modifications or deletions of critical Azure resources.
Azure Resource Locks are used to prevent accidental deletion or modification of resources in an Azure environment. They help administrators protect critical resources from unintended changes.
You can apply Azure Locks at the Azure subscription, resource group, or individual resource level.
Before applying Azure Resource Locks, it is important to understand the concept of lock inheritance. When you apply a lock at a parent scope, resources within that scope inherit the lock. Resources you add later within the same scope are also subject to the inherited lock.
For example, when you apply a lock to a resource group, all resources within that resource group are subject to the lock, including resources created in the future.
Azure provides two types of resource locks: ReadOnly and CanNotDelete.
A ReadOnly lock prevents modifications to a resource. You can view the resource, but you cannot update or delete it while the lock is applied. Think of it as view-only mode for a resource.
ReadOnly = No changes allowed + No deletion
A CanNotDelete lock prevents the deletion of a resource. Users can still update or modify the resource, but they cannot delete it while the lock is applied.
CanNotDelete = Changes allowed + No deletion
Azure Locks are especially useful in the following scenarios:
Protect production resources like storage accounts, virtual machines from accidental deletion or modification.
Prevent accidental changes to resources in testing environments that could affect test results.
Project Completed: If no further changes are required, apply a ReadOnly lock to prevent modifications and deletion.
Project Ongoing: If changes are still required but deletion must be prevented, apply a CanNotDelete lock.
Azure Resource Locks are used to protect Azure resources from accidental deletion or modification. They help administrators safeguard critical resources.
Azure provides two types of resource locks: ReadOnly and CanNotDelete. ReadOnly prevents modifications and deletion, while CanNotDelete allows modifications but prevents deletion.
Azure Resource Locks can be applied at the subscription, resource group, and individual resource levels.
Lock inheritance means that resources within a locked parent scope, such as a resource group or subscription, inherit the lock. Resources created later within that scope are also subject to the lock.
A user must have the appropriate permissions to delete or change a resource lock. For example, the Owner role or a role with the required lock-management permissions can remove a lock.

I have enrolled for azure administrator course and is nearing to an end. The trainer Mr. Zameer make sure all the attendees are able to understand the concepts on the course through a hands on experience and also helps them with the practicals when we are stuck. They provide the access to lms, which helps us to practice and refresh what is studied. This helped me alot. Am also planning to do more courses with them. Thanks for the amazing support from attari classes.
azure training is best at attari classes.the way zameer sir explains concept is exceptional. full hands on practical is provided.attari classes follows a very different approach i.e 85% practical and 15% theory which is very good.
I took VMware training from Attari Classes long ago and it helped me alot in my professional growth, I already knew the teaching way of Maqsood Sir so there was no second thought before joining AWS batch, even though it was online session due to Pandemic it was 100% interactive and completely hands-on session with real life examples. No matter the number of time you ask question Sir make sure to clear them out and if someone get stuck during practicals Sir make sure to take the remote and guide them to fix the problems so that no one stays behind. And LMS (Learning Management System) in the other hand is great facility provided by Attari Classes, If in case you didn't understand something or miss the lecture it really helps to cover those topics. Tip and Tricks is the bonus
Azuure Online Training : Training is Unique, Zameer Sir is very unique in terms of providing Lab instructions and making students do the lab perfectly. I recommand Attarii Classes for any training now or in the future as well. Approach of training is awasome !!!!
My experience of AZURE training by Zameer sir was really amazing. He explains every topic in a detailed way and also very descriptive while sharing knowledge. A very calm and patient teacher, also helps to understand concepts deeply. My experience with Attari classes has been 10/10 till now as I have also done VMware training before which was with the expert Maqsood Sir!
