Neruba security posture
Start with the controls that change rollout risk most: signed webhooks, scoped access, deliberate docs exposure, and production discipline around secrets, proxies, and migrations.
Webhooks and raw payload checks protect the edge.
Auth, scoped roles, and admin boundaries limit reach.
Docs and debugging surfaces stay intentional.
Secrets and operational practices keep controls practical.
Review the control evidence before the explanatory notes
Use this page when rollout risk depends on ingress controls, scoped access, docs exposure, secrets, proxy behavior, and incident reporting.
- Security review needs to answer what protects ingress, who can mutate billing state, and how operator surfaces are exposed.
- The team needs a production checklist for secrets, proxies, migrations, and runtime handling rather than broad reassurance.
- You want a direct handoff into trust or operations once the control questions are answered.
- 1Read the control evidence rail first to confirm which security surfaces are already explicit in the product and deployment posture.
- 2Use the control surfaces section when you need the short version of ingress, access, and docs exposure decisions.
- 3Finish with production checks and reporting so rollout planning includes operational security, not just app-layer controls.
Open trust when the review now needs a broader packet for mixed reviewer groups instead of a purely security-focused read.
Open operations when the next question is about runtime, scheduler behavior, support actions, or recovery under load.
Open the rollout path when deployment, proxy, docs, and support questions are clear enough to turn into environment-specific guidance.
Security reads more credibly when the control surfaces are visible before the detailed notes
Raw-body verification and replay-safe handling keep payment-side events trustworthy.
JWT, scopes, project checks, and API keys constrain who can touch billing state.
Operational docs and OpenAPI can be gated or disabled when production calls for it.
Secrets, HTTPS, proxy posture, and migration discipline stay part of the security story.
Controls that stand up to a real implementation review
Webhook verification, auth boundaries, docs exposure, secrets handling, and environment-specific hardening are all part of the deployment conversation.
Show raw payload handling, verification, and replay discipline at the edge.
Keep roles, scoped credentials, and admin reach easy to inspect.
Explain which docs, debug, or admin routes stay exposed in each environment.
Tie secrets, rotation, and deployment practices back to real production behavior.
Start with the security surfaces that change rollout risk
Security review should answer a few concrete questions fast: what hits the ingress path, which credentials can write billing state, how docs are exposed, and what operational discipline production requires.
Confirm raw-body handling, signature verification, replay protection, and which proxy or CDN settings could break that chain.
Treat `/docs` and `/openapi.json` as environment decisions: useful in development, gated or disabled in production unless a team has a clear reason to keep them live.
Secret rotation, HTTPS, trusted proxy headers, and migration discipline belong in the rollout checklist, not buried in a footnote.
Raw body and signature checks
Auth, roles, scoped keys
Intentional docs and admin surfaces
Operational hygiene
Webhook and ingress hardening
Verify Stripe signatures on raw request bodies, protect secrets, and avoid proxy mutations that break signature or replay guarantees.
Auth and access control
JWT auth, refresh flows, admin scopes, project access checks, and API-key boundaries keep money-moving operations constrained to the right actor.
Docs and operator exposure
Keep `/docs` and `/openapi.json` disabled in production unless explicitly needed, and use auth or edge controls when they must remain enabled.
Concrete guidance, not vague reassurance
Production readiness depends on more than app code. Treat secrets, proxy behavior, HTTPS, time sync, migrations, and replay-safe recovery as part of the security review itself.
Use a real secret manager, avoid committed local env files, and keep database credentials least-privileged rather than admin-level by default.
Run behind HTTPS, configure trusted proxy headers correctly, and keep clocks in sync so timestamp-based verification remains reliable.
Run migrations during deploy, monitor scheduler logs, and keep replay and recovery behavior part of your normal operating model.
Keep the reporting path private and useful. The goal is a reproducible security handoff, not a public thread with partial details.
- Use a private reporting channel for vulnerabilities rather than opening public issues with sensitive detail.
- Include reproduction steps, impact, affected versions, and any mitigation ideas when reporting a problem.
- Security fixes are centered on the latest released version; older versions may need to upgrade before a fix can be verified.
Connect security review to the rollout you are planning
Once deployment model, docs posture, proxy behavior, and support boundaries are clear, move into rollout planning with the people who need to sign off.
Run one known-good sequence after deploys and environment changes.
Accepted, duplicate, replay, conflict, and failed outcomes stay visible over time.
Use idempotency keys and event identifiers to retrace the bad path quickly.
Support and ops should know what to replay, what to inspect, and when to stop retrying.
