The default security group contains a number of rules by default. These rules allow network traffic for any port, from any ip, into (Ingress) a VM originating from another VM in the default security group for internet protocols version 4 and 6. They also allow network traffic out (Egress) of a VM from any port to any IP for both internet protocol versions. In other words these rules allow a VM which belongs to the Default security group access out to the internet, to download content (e.g. operating system upgrades, package installations) but does not allow another machine outside the default security group access to the VM. These default rules allow you to correctly launch a VM, removing them may cause problems when creating new VMs and is not recommended. These rules do not allow access to your VM from outside the default security group which is why to connect to your VM via SSH a security rule was added for port 22 to allow incoming (Ingress) traffic so that you were able to connect to your VM (see Firewall, add rules to allow SSH).
