# Enhanced security

These guides cover improving the security posture of your GoToSocial deployment. They don't involve tweaking settings in GoToSocial, but rather additional things you can do to better lock down your instance.

!!! note
    Anything in these guides is meant to enhance the security of your GoToSocial deployment; they are not a replacement for good security practices like keeping your systems patched and up to date.

## Guides

* [Sandboxing the GoToSocial binary](sandboxing.md)
* [Firewall configuration](firewall.md)
[docs] Made Advanced its own section (#1883) * [docs] Made Advanced its own section This splits the Advanced page off from the Getting Started guide and makes it its own thing. It now has some additional sub-sections for bigger topics like caching and enhanced security. This also moves tracing from Getting Started to Advanced as that feels like a more appropriate location for it. The enhanced security looks a little silly with a single section, but I have guides pending for firewall configurations and I'd also like to consolidate our how to provision TLS certificates in there as we repeat this information multiple times. * [docs] Fix all my spelling errors * [docs] Inline the links in sandboxing 2023-06-12 13:38:53 +00:00			`# Enhanced security`
