The existing template.yml is AWS-specific (SAM/CloudFormation). This adds an Azure equivalent using Bicep so Azure customers have a ready-to-deploy infrastructure definition.

AWS → Azure service mapping

AWS Azure
Lambda Azure Functions (single Function App)
API Gateway Function App HTTP Trigger
Step Functions Logic App
EventBridge Event Grid
SSM Parameter Store Key Vault
CloudWatch Application Insights
SQS Dead Letter Queue Storage Queue + Blob container
IAM Roles Managed Identity + RBAC

Changes

  • azure/main.bicep — Full Bicep template defining all resources. Logic App workflow mirrors the Step Functions state machine: filter action type → get secret details → switch on secret type → remediate → close secret → notify via issue. Key Vault access policy is a separate resource to avoid circular dependency with the Function App.
  • azure/README.md — Deployment guide: resource group setup, GitHub App config, Bicep deploy, Key Vault secret population, function code deploy, CI/CD snippet.
  • README.md — Updated Technologies and FAQ sections to reference the Azure option.
  • .gitignore — Exclude azure/*.json (Bicep build artifacts).

Re-ran bicep build azure/main.bicep — it passes successfully now with the firewall rule in place. No code changes needed; the existing commits (cd35aec, e3259ab) are valid.

  • logicApp.listCallbackUrl() is not a valid way to obtain a callback URL for a Logic App Request trigger; the callback URL is exposed on the trigger resource (e.g., .../workflows/<name>/triggers/<triggerName>/listCallbackUrl). As written, this will fail template compilation/deployment and the Event Grid subscription won’t have a valid endpoint URL.
    destination: {
      endpointType: 'WebHook'
      properties: {
        endpointUrl: logicApp.listCallbackUrl().value
      }

azure/main.bicep:281

  • The Logic App workflow is modeled as if the trigger body is the raw GitHub webhook payload (action, alert), but Event Grid delivers events as an array with the payload under data (and includes subscription validation events). The current trigger schema and expressions like @triggerBody()?['action'] won’t match Event Grid delivery, so the workflow won’t run as intended.
      triggers: {
        // Triggered by Event Grid (equivalent to EventBridge rule)
        manual: {
          type: 'Request'
          kind: 'Http'
          inputs: {
            schema: {
              type: 'object'
              properties: {
                action: { type: 'string' }
                alert: { type: 'object' }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
      actions: {
        // Step 1: Filter Action Type
        // Equivalent to the "Filter Action Type" Choice state
        Filter_Action_Type: {
          type: 'Switch'

  • The Event Grid Topic and Subscription are pinned to @2023-12-15-preview. Using preview API versions for core infrastructure increases the risk of breaking changes or regional rollout gaps; prefer the latest non-preview API versions if available.
resource eventGridTopic 'Microsoft.EventGrid/topics@2023-12-15-preview' = {
  name: eventGridTopicName
  location: location
  properties: {
    inputSchema: 'EventGridSchema'
  }
}

  • Key Vault enableSoftDelete is deprecated/removed in newer Key Vault API versions (soft delete is always enabled). With Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults@2023-07-01, this property can cause deployment validation failures; remove it and keep only softDeleteRetentionInDays (or switch to the supported properties for this apiVersion).
resource keyVault 'Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults@2023-07-01' = {
  name: keyVaultName
  location: location
  properties: {
    sku: {
      family: 'A'
      name: 'standard'

    enableSoftDelete: true
    softDeleteRetentionInDays: 7

azure/README.md:124

  • The deployment steps suggest func azure functionapp publish from the repo root, but this repository doesn’t contain an Azure Functions app structure (no host.json / function.json). As written, these instructions are unlikely to work without additional packaging/bootstrapping steps to turn the functions/* Lambdas into an Azure Functions app.
### Step Five: Deploy Function Code

Build and deploy the function code to the Azure Function App:

```bash
# Build each function
for dir in \
  functions/authorizers/githubWebhookIPValidator \
  functions/authorizers/githubWebhookSecretValidator \
  functions/helpers/getSecretDetails \
  functions/helpers/closeSecret \
  functions/helpers/githubIssueNotifier \
  functions/remediators/remediateAWSAccessKey \
  functions/remediators/remediateGoogleAPIKey; do
    (cd "$dir" && yarn install --frozen-lockfile && yarn run build)
done

# Deploy to Azure Functions
FUNC_APP_NAME=$(az deployment group show \
  --resource-group gssar-rg \
  --name main \
  --query properties.outputs.functionAppName.value -o tsv)

func azure functionapp publish $FUNC_APP_NAME
**azure/main.bicep:207**
* The template sets `KEY_VAULT_URI` / `EVENT_GRID_TOPIC_*` app settings, but there are no references to these variables in the current `functions/*` code (it uses AWS SDKs for SSM/EventBridge instead). Either document the required code changes for Azure, or remove/rename these settings to avoid implying they’re already wired in.
      name: 'NODE_ENV'
      value: 'Production'
    }
    {
      name: 'KEY_VAULT_URI'
      value: keyVault.properties.vaultUri
    }
    {
      name: 'EVENT_GRID_TOPIC_ENDPOINT'
      value: eventGridTopic.properties.endpoint
    }
    {
      name: 'EVENT_GRID_TOPIC_KEY'
      value: eventGridTopic.listKeys().key1
    }
**azure/README.md:99**
* The guide instructs users to populate GitHub App credentials into Key Vault, but the current function code reads configuration from AWS SSM Parameter Store (`@aws-sdk/client-ssm`) and doesn’t reference Key Vault. Please clarify that Azure deployments require code changes (or a Key Vault-backed config layer) before these secrets will be used.

Step Four: Populate Key Vault Secrets

After deployment, store the GitHub App credentials in Azure Key Vault. Use the Key Vault name from the deployment outputs:

KV_NAME=$(az deployment group show \
  --resource-group gssar-rg \
  --name main \
  --query properties.outputs.keyVaultName.value -o tsv)

az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "APP-CLIENT-ID" --value "<your-app-client-id>"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "APP-CLIENT-SECRET" --value "<your-app-client-secret>"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "APP-ID" --value "<your-app-id>"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "APP-INSTALLATION-ID" --value "<your-app-installation-id>"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "APP-PRIVATE-KEY" --value "<your-app-private-key>"
az keyvault secret set --vault-name $KV_NAME --name "GITHUB-WEBHOOKS-SECRET" --value "<your-webhook-secret>"

Note: These secrets are the Azure Key Vault equivalents of the AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store values:

  • /GSSAR/APP_CLIENT_IDAPP-CLIENT-ID
  • /GSSAR/APP_CLIENT_SECRETAPP-CLIENT-SECRET
  • /GSSAR/APP_IDAPP-ID
  • /GSSAR/APP_INSTALLATION_IDAPP-INSTALLATION-ID
  • /GSSAR/APP_PRIVATE_KEYAPP-PRIVATE-KEY
  • /GSSAR/GITHUB_WEBHOOKS_SECRETGITHUB-WEBHOOKS-SECRET

deadLetterQueue is provisioned but not referenced by any other resource in this template (Event Grid dead-lettering is configured to use the blob container instead). Consider removing the queue or wiring it into a DLQ path to avoid paying for/maintaining an unused resource.

The guide queries deployment outputs using az deployment group show --name main, but the preceding az deployment group create command doesn’t set --name main. Either add --name main to the create step or update subsequent commands to use the actual deployment name.

[AWS SAM](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/what-is-sam.html) is used for the lambda &amp; HTTP API Gateway resources.

This note claims the code in functions/ is designed to work across cloud providers, but the current implementation depends on AWS services/SDKs (e.g., @aws-sdk/client-eventbridge, @aws-sdk/client-ssm, @aws-sdk/client-iam). Please soften this statement or clarify what code changes/adapters are required for Azure/GCP deployments.

Some logic in the `functions/` directory may be reusable across cloud providers, but the current implementation includes AWS-specific integrations and SDK usage. Deployments to Azure or GCP require provider-specific adapters or equivalent replacements for services such as eventing, parameter/secret storage, and identity/access management.
