I have a basic Kestrel application written on .Net Core 6.0. Is there any need to install a certificate into the docker container to expose 443 if the application is eventually deployed onto an Azure AppService that has SSL enabled? Or put another way, am I exposing myself to network traffic risks if the communication between Azure and the guts of the container are not done over HTTPS?

App Service does TLS termination and traffic flow to your container in the App Service sandbox using port 80 or using the port you define with the WEBSITES_PORT application setting. Your containers are not exposed directly over the Internet as they are protected by the App Service firewall.
