🔒 Authentication & Authorization
- Use Strong Password Policies: Enforce complexity requirements and limit login attempts to prevent brute force attacks.
- Implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Add an extra layer of security with OTP or biometrics.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Restrict access based on user roles to minimize vulnerabilities.
🛡️ Data Protection
- Encrypt Sensitive Data: Use AES-256 for data at rest and TLS for data in transit.
- Regularly Update Dependencies: Patch known vulnerabilities in libraries and frameworks.
- Sanitize User Inputs: Prevent SQL injection and XSS attacks by validating data.
🌐 Secure Communication
- Enable HTTPS: Use SSL/TLS certificates to secure data transmitted between clients and servers.
- Use Secure Headers: Set
Content-Security-Policy and X-Content-Type-Options for browser security.
- Limit API Exposure: Restrict access to internal APIs and use rate limiting to prevent abuse.
