Policy: Azure > CIS v3.0 > 09 - Application Services > 09.05 - Ensure that Register with Entra ID is enabled on App Service

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 1

Managed service identity in App Service provides more security by eliminating secrets from the app, such as credentials in the connection strings. When registering an App Service with Entra ID, the app will connect to other Azure services securely without the need for usernames and passwords.

App Service provides a highly scalable, self-patching web hosting service in Azure. It also provides a managed identity for apps, which is a turn-key solution for securing access to Azure SQL Database and other Azure services.
