Why this matters

Azure NSGs with port 22 open to any source (0.0.0.0/0 or *) expose VMs to SSH brute force attacks. This is one of the most common misconfigurations in Azure environments.

⚠ Always verify resources are genuinely unused before deleting. Check with your team — a "stopped" instance may be intentional.
