Tips: Best Practices for The Other Azure App Service (Web Apps) Resources
In addition to the azurerm_app_service, Azure App Service (Web Apps) has the other resources that should be configured for security reasons. Please check some examples of those resources and precautions.
azurerm_app_service
Ensure your App Service is accessible via HTTPS only
It is better to configure the App Service to be accessible via HTTPS only. By default, both HTTP and HTTPS are available.
azurerm_function_app
Ensure to enable authentication to prevent anonymous request being accepted
It is better to enable authentication to prevent anonymous requests and ensure all communications in the application are authenticated.
Microsoft.Web/serverfarms (Azure Resource Manager)
The serverfarms in Microsoft.Web can be configured in Azure Resource Manager with the resource name Microsoft.Web/serverfarms
. The following sections describe how to use the resource and its parameters.
