security on self-hosted ORS

Hello ,

I’m just starting to install ORS on my server. Everything works perfectly, but I have a question about security.

How to secure an api on a self-hosted server ?

Can we create an API key? if so, where can we find information about this configuration.

Thank you all for your work and your help.

Hi @Steve_Farese ,

We are using Tyk for api security and load balancing https://tyk.io/
There are other alternatives.

Best consult their documentation or the security system you will be using.

Best regards
