CCSS (Common Configuration Scoring System) is a set of measures used to determine the severity of the rule.
Each rule is associated with a high-level category. For example IAM, Container, Monitoring, Logging, Network, etc.

Description
Virtual Machines should use Managed Disks. Virtual Machine managed disks are designed for security and reliability in mind, so in most cases, users should use managed disks instead of their own disks. Managed disks are encrypted by default with Microsoft-managed keys, and are integrated with availability sets and support availability zones for high availability.
How to fix?
Virtual Machines should use Managed Disks for OS and data.
