Protect your Redis server from unauthorized access, exposed data, and unsafe commands.
Redis can contain sensitive application data, sessions, tokens, caches, or even information used for authentication. Leaving a Redis server exposed to an untrusted network can therefore create a serious security problem.
Security involves controlling network access, using authentication and authorization features, encrypting connections when needed, and following the principle of least privilege. Redis should generally be placed behind appropriate network controls rather than treated as a public-facing service.
