Security Considerations for Users

API Token Security

  • Never commit API tokens to version control
  • Use environment variables or secure configuration files
  • Rotate API tokens regularly
  • Use tokens with minimal required permissions

Network Security

  • Always use HTTPS when connecting to Authentik
  • Consider using VPN or private networks for sensitive environments
  • Validate SSL certificates

MCP Server Security

  • Run MCP servers in isolated environments when possible
  • Limit network access to only required ports
  • Use proper authentication and authorization
  • Monitor server logs for suspicious activity

Configuration Security

  • Protect configuration files containing sensitive information
  • Use file permissions to restrict access (chmod 600)
  • Consider using encrypted configuration stores

Known Security Considerations

API Access

  • This tool provides access to Authentik APIs with the permissions of the provided token
  • Ensure tokens used have appropriate scope limitations
  • Monitor API usage for unexpected patterns

Data Exposure

  • Be cautious when logging or debugging - avoid exposing sensitive data
  • MCP protocol communication should be secured in production environments

Dependencies

  • We regularly update dependencies to address security vulnerabilities
  • Use npm audit and uv check to monitor for known vulnerabilities

Security Updates

Security updates will be:

  • Released as patch versions (e.g., 0.1.1, 0.1.2)
  • Announced in release notes with "Security" label
  • Pushed to all supported versions when possible
