Generally Available: Encryption in Transit (EiT) for Azure Files NFS shares

Azure Files NFS shares now support Encryption in Transit (EiT) using TLS 1.3 to secure all NFS traffic, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. This layer of added security helps enterprises meet end-to-end compliance needs while maintaining performance and simplicity. Configuring EiT is simple using the open-source AZNFS mount helper, which automates TLS tunneling and volume mount operations for NFS shares. EiT is supported across all major Linux distros, Azure Linux VMs, on-premises Linux servers, and more.
