While I take measures to secure this project, it's important for users to follow general security best practices:

• 📦 Keep dependencies up-to-date using tools like Dependabot or Renovate.
• 🛠️ Perform regular code audits and use tools to check for vulnerabilities in third-party libraries.
• 🔑 Use secure storage for sensitive data (e.g., API keys, credentials). Consider using environment variables or services like AWS Secrets Manager.
• 💻 Scan your code with static analysis tools like SonarQube or Snyk.

🚨 Security is a shared responsibility! Stay proactive to keep your environment safe.
