Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by providing a specific example for restricting IP addresses using web.config, which is only applicable to App Service on Windows. There is no equivalent example or mention of how to achieve similar functionality on Linux-based App Service environments. Additionally, the reference to IIS (Internet Information Services) and web.config is a Windows-centric tool and pattern, with no Linux alternative discussed.
Recommendations
  • Include examples or instructions for restricting IP addresses on App Service for Linux, such as using .htaccess for Apache, nginx configuration, or other relevant Linux web server methods.
  • When mentioning Windows-specific tools (e.g., web.config, IIS), provide Linux equivalents in parallel or note the differences explicitly.
  • Ensure that security best practices are presented in a cross-platform manner, with equal coverage for both Windows and Linux hosting environments.
  • Add a section or note clarifying how App Service security features differ between Windows and Linux, and link to platform-specific documentation where appropriate.
