Security

This section will list key security points regarding CloudQuery. Make sure you follow best practices if you decide to "host it yourself."

Plugin Authentication Credentials

• Plugin Authentication Credentials should always be read-only.
• The machine where CloudQuery is running should be secured with the correct permissions, as it contains the credentials to your cloud infrastructure.

CloudQuery Database

Even though the CloudQuery database contains only configuration and meta-data, you should protect it and keep it secure with correct access and permissions.
