• A Firewall policy is an Azure resource that contains NAT, network, and application rule collections and Threat Intelligence settings.

• It is a global resource that can be used across multiple Azure Firewall instances in Secured Virtual Hubs and Hub Virtual Networks.

• New policies can be created from scratch or inherited from existing policies. Inheritance allows DevOps to create local firewall policies on top of organization mandated base policy.

• Policies work across regions and subscriptions.

• Once you create a policy, you can associate it with a firewall in a virtual WAN hub making it a Secured Virtual Hub and/or associate it with a firewall in a standard Azure virtual network making it a Hub Virtual Network.
