Security Considerations

API Keys and Tokens

  • Never commit API keys, tokens, or sensitive credentials to the repository
  • Store all sensitive data in .env files which are excluded from git
  • Rotate API keys and tokens periodically
  • Use environment-specific keys for development and production

WhatsApp Session Security

  • WhatsApp session files (.wwebjs_auth/ directory) contain sensitive authentication data
  • Never share or commit WhatsApp session files
  • Regularly check for unauthorized session access
  • Implement session timeout and auto-logout features

Telegram Bot Security

  • Use webhook mode in production for better security
  • Implement rate limiting for bot commands
  • Validate all user inputs before processing
  • Restrict bot commands to authorized users when necessary

Server Security

  • Keep Node.js and all dependencies up to date
  • Run the application with minimal required permissions
  • Use HTTPS for all external communications
  • Implement proper error handling without exposing system details
  • Regular security audits of dependencies using npm audit

Data Protection

  • Implement rate limiting for API requests
  • Sanitize all user inputs
  • Don't store sensitive user data
  • Regularly clean up temporary files (screenshots, logs)
  • Implement proper logging without exposing sensitive information

Best Practices

Environment Setup

  1. Use separate .env files for development and production
  2. Restrict access to configuration files
  3. Use strong, unique passwords for all services
  4. Keep system and dependencies updated

Code Security

  1. Validate and sanitize all inputs
  2. Use prepared statements for queries
  3. Implement proper error handling
  4. Regular code reviews
  5. Follow secure coding guidelines

Deployment

  1. Use PM2 for process management
  2. Implement proper logging
  3. Regular backup of critical data
  4. Monitor system resources
  5. Use firewall rules to restrict access
