Security Best Practices

For Developers

  • Never commit secrets or credentials
  • Use environment variables for sensitive configuration
  • Follow the principle of least privilege
  • Validate all user input

  • Enable two-factor authentication when available
  • Keep your API keys secure
  • Rotate credentials regularly
  • Monitor your usage for anomalies

Known Security Measures

Authentication

  • JWT tokens with short expiration (15 minutes)
  • Refresh tokens with longer expiration (7 days)
  • Password hashing with bcrypt (cost factor 12)
  • API key hashing for stored keys

Data Protection

  • All data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3)
  • Data at rest encryption (AWS KMS)
  • Database credentials stored in AWS Secrets Manager

Infrastructure

  • VPC with private subnets for databases
  • Security groups with minimal required ports
  • Regular security audits
  • Automated vulnerability scanning

Rate Limiting

  • Per-user rate limits
  • Per-database rate limits
  • DDoS protection via AWS Shield

Compliance

We are working towards:

  • SOC 2 Type II compliance
  • GDPR compliance
  • PCI DSS compliance (for payment handling)
