Azure App Service

Overview

QCecuring integrates with Azure App Service to automate the full certificate lifecycle for web apps, API apps, and function apps hosted on Microsoft’s PaaS platform. Teams gain centralized control over TLS bindings without manual portal interactions.

Key capabilities

• Automated provisioning of TLS certificates to App Service custom domains.
• Renewal workflows that update certificate bindings before expiration.
• Support for both App Service Managed Certificates and enterprise CA-issued certificates.
• Centralized visibility into certificate health across all App Service instances.
• Policy enforcement for minimum key strength and certificate validity periods.

Typical use cases

• Development teams deploying web applications on Azure App Service with custom domains.
• Platform engineering teams managing hundreds of App Service instances across subscriptions.
• Organizations requiring enterprise-grade certificates rather than platform-managed defaults.

High-level integration flow

1. Authenticate QCecuring to Azure using a service principal with App Service contributor permissions.
2. The platform discovers App Service instances, custom domains, and current TLS bindings.
3. Certificate policies are applied based on environment, domain, and application classification.
4. QCecuring provisions certificates from approved CAs and binds them to the appropriate custom domains.
5. Continuous monitoring alerts teams to expiring certificates, weak configurations, or policy violations.

CBOM Discovery

QCecuring inventories TLS certificates bound to App Service instances, mapping algorithms and key details into your organization’s CBOM.
