Ensure web app is using the latest version of TLS encryption

Description

The TLS(Transport Layer Security) protocol secures transmission of data over the internet using standard encryption technology. Encryption should be set with the latest version of TLS. App service allows TLS 1.2 by default, which is the recommended TLS level by industry standards, such as PCI DSS.

Remediation

Perform the following in the Azure Console:

  1. Login to Azure Portal using https://portal.azure.com
  2. Go to App Services
  3. Click on each App
  4. Under Setting section, Click on SSL settings
  5. Set Minimum TLS Version to 1.2 under Protocol Settings section

Perform the following in Azure Command Line Interface 2.0:

To set TLS Version for an existing app, run the following command.

az webapp config set –resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME> –name <APP_NAME>–min-tls-version 1.2
