7. Click on "OK" to save the access policy.

Step 3: Encrypt the virtual machine disks

Now that you have granted permissions to the Azure Disk Encryption service, you can encrypt the virtual machine disks. Follow these steps to encrypt the virtual machine disks:

1. Go to the virtual machine you want to encrypt.

2. Click on "Disks" in the left pane.

3. Select the disk you want to encrypt.

4. Click on "Encryption settings" in the top pane.

5. Click on "Disk encryption set" and select "Create new".

6. Fill in the required information, such as the name, resource group, and region.

7. Under "Key encryption key (KEK)", select "Azure Key Vault".

8. Select the Key Vault you created in Step 1.

9. Under "Key encryption key (KEK) URL", select the key URL you want to use.

10. Click on "OK" to save the encryption settings.

Step 4: Verify encryption

After you have configured the Azure Disk Encryption, you can verify that the virtual machine disks are encrypted. Follow these steps to verify encryption:

1. Go to the virtual machine you encrypted in Step 3.

2. Click on "Disks" in the left pane.

3. Select the encrypted disk.

4. Check the "Encryption status" in the top pane. It should say "Encrypted".

That's it! You have successfully configured Azure Disk Encryption to retrieve secrets from an Azure Key Vault.
