A curated guide of security best practices for Ruby on Rails applications, covering secrets management, SQL injection, host header injection, HTTPS, and encryption of data at rest. It is documentation rather than a library, pointing to relevant Rails features and companion tools.

Use cases

  • secure a rails app
  • rails security best practices
  • prevent sql injection in activerecord
  • force https and hsts in rails
  • encrypt sensitive data in rails
  • rails secrets management guide

When to choose

  • you build or audit a Ruby on Rails application and want a concise security checklist
  • you want curated links to Rails security features and related libraries

When to avoid

  • you need a runnable security scanning tool rather than documentation
  • your stack is not Ruby on Rails
