Security Best Practices for Users

To keep your deployment secure, we recommend:

  • Always run the latest image version
  • Avoid exposing n8n directly to the internet
  • Use reverse proxies (NGINX/Traefik) with SSL
  • Change default environment variables immediately
  • Use strong webhook secrets and credentials
  • Restrict container permissions whenever possible
  • Update system packages regularly

Hardening the Container

Our Kali-n8n image includes:

  • Minimal required capabilities
  • Latest Linux security patches
  • Isolated environment for command execution
  • Support for additional tools installed by the user
  • Non-root execution where possible
  • Optional root mode for full Kali workflows

If you notice unsafe defaults or want to suggest improvements, contact us privately.
