How do you secure bindings (e.g., connection strings)?

Short answer: Store secrets in Azure App Service Application Settings or Key Vault. Reference via Connection property in binding: [QueueTrigger("myqueue", Connection = "AzureWebJobsStorage")]

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest on Azure typically uses App Service + SQL Database + Blob Storage + Application Insights for monitoring.

Say this in the interview

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
