For example, you can configure your network to align with your corporate network security policy and change the ports and protocols in the daemon to align with your requirements. You can use the following instructions to improve your machine security configuration:  [Secure VM in Azure](../virtual-machines/linux/security-policy.md), [Best practices for Network security](../security/fundamentals/network-best-practices.md).
