Identified and remediated 12 security misconfigurations across Bicep infrastructure definitions. All changes maintain backward compatibility.

Network Security

  • Web App: Enforce httpsOnly, minTlsVersion: '1.2', disable FTPS
  • ACR: Disable public network access (publicNetworkAccess: 'Disabled')

Data Protection

  • SQL Database: Enable Transparent Data Encryption
  • SQL Server: Enable auditing with 90-day retention, Azure Monitor integration
  • SQL Server: Add system-assigned managed identity, optional AAD admin via parameters

Observability

  • Log Analytics: Increase retention 30d → 90d
  • Key Vault: Add diagnostic settings (AuditEvent)
  • SQL Server: Add diagnostic settings (SQLSecurityAuditEvents)
  • App Service: Add diagnostic settings (HTTP logs, console logs, app logs, audit logs)

Configuration Example

SQL Server now supports optional Azure AD authentication:

// Deploy with Azure AD admin
resource deployment 'Microsoft.Resources/deployments@2022-09-01' = {
  properties: {
    parameters: {
      sqlAdminObjectId: { value: '<object-id>' }
      sqlAdminLogin: { value: '<admin-upn>' }
    }
  }
}

Compliance

Aligns to CIS Azure 4.1.x, 5.1.x, 9.x; NIST 800-53 SC-7/8/28, AU-2; Azure Security Benchmark DP-3/4, LT-4/5, NS-1/8, PA-7.

    • Triggering command: /usr/local/bin/bicep bicep build main.bicep (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:
