Is it safe to have my Site accessible from the public web?
/docs/gears/faq-howto-troubleshooting/faq-security-public/
This is one of these unanswerable questions. Like: is it safe to go on a two-week vacation or will my house be broken into while I’m gone? We can’t quite answer that question.
But here are some thoughts:
-
If you use UBOS on the
yellow
(“beta”) release channel, assume there are bugs. -
If you use UBOS on the
green
(“production”) release channel, still assume that there are bugs. -
To see which bugs have been filed, go to Github.
-
As a free project, UBOS is “as-is” and we make no warranties of any kind.
-
So far, we are not aware of any break-in or compromise of any UBOS system by anybody.
-
We run UBOS ourselves, and we definitely don’t want to be compromised.
