If these apps have not been designed and implemented securely, then security issues of your apps get exposed to the internet.", "Recommendation": "Ensure that apps you expose via App Proxy have been built using secure development standards/process such as SDL (Refer: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sdl)", "Tags": [ "SDL", "TCP", "Manual", "Deploy", "ApplicationProxy" ], "Enabled": true }, { "ControlID": "Azure_ApplicationProxy_AuthN_Use_AAD_PreAuth", "Description": "AAD Authentication must be enabled as a pre-authentication method on your app.", "Id": "ApplicationProxy120", "ControlSeverity": "High", "Automated": "No", "MethodName": "", "Rationale": "Pre-authentication by its very nature, blocks a significant number of anonymous attacks, because only authenticated identities can access the back-end application.", "Recommendation": "AAD Application Administrator (or higher privilege role) can check app pre-authentication configuration from portal or by running command 'Get-AzureADApplicationProxyApplication -ObjectId <AADAppID>'. To enable AAD Auth run command 'Set-AzureADApplicationProxyApplication -ObjectId <AppObjectID> -ExternalAuthenticationType AadPreAuthentication'.

Ensure that the system is always fully patched, has real-time malware protection enabled, OS firewall and disk encryption turned on, etc. Also, monitor this VM just like you'd monitor a high-value asset.", "Tags": [ "SDL", "TCP", "Manual", "Config", "ApplicationProxy" ], "Enabled": true } ] } |
