Security Best Practices

We recommend the following best practices for ensuring the security of your deployment:

• Keep your software up to date. Ensure you are always running the latest version.
• Regularly audit your dependencies. Use tools like npm audit, yarn audit, or pip-audit to find and fix vulnerabilities in third-party libraries.
• Follow the principle of least privilege. Only grant the necessary permissions to users and services.
