With apache, you can use modsecurity quite easily, and you can block all azure (and other cloud providers ranges) from certain services like wordpress, or contact forms etc.. (you can even do dns based checks or rbldnsd) ..

Unless desktop in the cloud becomes more prevalent, you should make sure that resources designed to be accessed by end users only, dont accept connections from potentially compromised servers, or the bad actors throwing up relays..

and yes, Azure, Googlecloud, Amazon threat activity is severely on the rise

Not to hijack this thread and send it off-topic, but I'm also seeing a lot of brute force attempts (mostly WordPress login attempts) from various and wide-ranging subnets of Microsoft IPs.

Has Microsoft's network been compromised?

Azure.
