Generally Available: Granular Encryption-in-Transit Controls for SMB and NFS on Azure Files

Azure Files now supports independent configuration of encryption-in-transit settings for SMB and NFS protocols at the storage account level. Customers can now define protocol-specific security policies, enabling precise control over encryption requirements for each protocol without compromise. This is ideal for environments running mixed-protocol workloads that demand tailored security configurations. This capability is available today through the Azure portal, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and REST API.
