GSL LOGIC

PostgreSQL should have infrastructureEncryption='Enabled'

REMEDIATION

From Portal

Go through the normal process of database creation.
On step 2 titled 'Additional settings' ensure that 'Infrastructure double encryption enabled' is 'checked'
Acknowledge that you understand this will impact database performance.
Finish database creation as normal.
On the final 'Review + create' screen, ensure that at the very bottom of the database properties, that 'Infrastructure (Double) encryption' is 'enabled'.

From TF
Set the 'infrastructure_encryption_enabled' to 'true':

resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "example" {
	..
	infrastructure_encryption_enabled  = true
	..
}

From Command Line
Run

az postgres server create --resource-group RESOURCEGROUPNAME --name SERVERNAME --location LOCATION --admin-user USERNAME --admin-password PASSWORD --sku-name SKUNAME --version 11 --infrastructure-encryption 'Enabled'

Note: Configuring Infrastructure double encryption for Azure Database for PostgreSQL is only allowed during server creation.

Azure Database for PostgreSQL

Azure Database for PostgreSQL is a relational database service based on the open-source Postgres database engine. It's a fully managed database as a service offering that can handle mission-critical workloads with predictable performance, security, high availability, and dynamic scalability. It's available in two deployment options, Single Server and Hyperscale (Citus) (preview). The Hyperscale (Citus) option horizontally scales queries across multiple machines using sharding, and serves applications that require greater scale and performance
