Secure Token Comparison +✅ Uses constant-time comparison to prevent timing attacks: +```ruby +ActiveSupport::SecurityUtils.secure_compare(token, expected_token) +``` + +### 2. Proper Input Validation +✅ Validates all model inputs with ActiveRecord validations: +```ruby +validates :event_id, presence: true, uniqueness: true +validates :timestamp, presence: true +validates :fingerprint, presence: true, uniqueness: { scope: :project_id } +``` + +### 3. Decompression Safety +✅ Handles compressed data with proper error handling: +```ruby +rescue LoadError + Rails.logger.error "Brotli gem not available" + head :ok # Fails gracefully + return +end +``` + +### 4. JSON Parsing Safety +✅ Proper exception handling for JSON parsing: +```ruby +rescue JSON::ParserError => e + Rails.logger.error "Failed to parse envelope JSON: #{e.message}" + false +end +``` + +### 5. Database Constraints +✅ Uses foreign key constraints and unique indexes: +```sql +add_foreign_key "events", "projects" +add_index :events, :event_id, unique: true +``` + +--- + +## Security Configuration Checklist + +### Production Deployment Checklist + +- [x] SSL/TLS enabled (`config.force_ssl = true`) +- [x] CSRF protection enabled +- [x] SQL injection protection (parameterized queries) +- [x] XSS protection (proper escaping) +- [x] Strong parameters for mass assignment +- [x] Secure session configuration +- [x] Parameter filtering in logs +- [ ] Rate limiting on API endpoints ⚠️ **IMPLEMENT BEFORE PRODUCTION** +- [ ] Content Security Policy headers (optional, recommended) +- [ ] Regular dependency updates via `bundle update` +- [ ] Regular security audits via `bundle-audit` + +### Recommended Additional Security Measures + +#### 1.
