Discover Azure public IP address ranges

Level:

Novice

Context

As an Azure penetration tester, you should attempt to discover resources that are available within an organization’s Azure Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) environment, and their attack surface area, by scanning the environment’s assigned public IP addresses from the internet.

For an approved engagement, an organization will most likely provide you with the current list of allocated public IP addresses in their Azure subscriptions to ensure that you do not impact other Azure customers.
You can ask them to obtain this list by running the following commands using the Azure CLI or the Az PowerShell module for each of their subscriptions.
