Summary
The documentation generally presents platform-neutral Azure security best practices, but in the 'Restrict incoming source IP addresses' section, it specifically calls out a Windows-only method (web.config for Dynamic IP Security) and links to IIS documentation, without mentioning Linux equivalents or alternatives. This may create friction for Linux App Service users seeking similar functionality.
Recommendations
  • Add guidance or links for restricting IP addresses on Linux-based App Service (e.g., using app settings, Azure portal, or web server configuration like nginx or Apache).
  • Clarify that the web.config/IIS method is Windows-only and suggest Linux alternatives where possible.
  • Ensure examples and tooling recommendations are provided for both Windows and Linux App Service environments.
