Security Considerations

🔒 Critical Security Measures

• Environment Variables: Never commit .env files. Use .env.example as templates.
• JWT Secrets: Use strong, unique JWT secrets. Never use fallback secrets.
• Database Credentials: Rotate database passwords regularly.
• API Keys: Store sensitive API keys server-side only.
• Rate Limiting: Auth routes are rate-limited to prevent brute force attacks.
• CORS: Configured to allow only trusted origins.
• Input Validation: All inputs validated with Zod schemas.
• Error Logging: Sensitive data is sanitized before logging.

🛡️ Authentication & Authorization

• JWT tokens with secure configuration
• Role-based access control (RBAC)
• Server-side route protection
• Middleware guards for sensitive endpoints

🔐 Data Protection

• Password hashing with bcrypt
• HTTPS enforcement in production
• Secure cookie configuration
• Input sanitization and validation
