🚨 Why Django Security Matters
Before we start, consider these sobering statistics:
- 43% of cyberattacks target small businesses and startups
- 60% of companies go out of business within 6 months of a data breach
- Average cost of a data breach: $4.45 million
Django provides excellent security features out of the box, but YOU must configure them correctly. One misconfiguration can expose your entire application.
Security Tip #1: Lock Down Your Django Settings
The Problem
Default Django settings are designed for development, not production. Running with DEBUG=True in production is like leaving your front door wide open.
The Solution
# settings/production.py
import os
from pathlib import Path
# CRITICAL: Never run with DEBUG=True in production
DEBUG = False
# Restrict which hosts can access your application
ALLOWED_HOSTS = [
'yourdomain.com',
'www.yourdomain.com',
'api.yourdomain.com',
]
# Generate a strong SECRET_KEY and keep it secret!
SECRET_KEY = os.environ.get('DJANGO_SECRET_KEY')
if not SECRET_KEY:
raise ValueError("DJANGO_SECRET_KEY environment variable must be set!")
# Security Headers
SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True # Force HTTPS
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True # Only send cookies over HTTPS
CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True
SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER = True
SECURE_CONTENT_TYPE_NOSNIFF = True
X_FRAME_OPTIONS = 'DENY' # Prevent clickjacking
# HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security)
SECURE_HSTS_SECONDS = 31536000 # 1 year
SECURE_HSTS_INCLUDE_SUBDOMAINS = True
SECURE_HSTS_PRELOAD = True
# Proxy settings (if behind nginx/load balancer)
SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER = ('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https')
USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST = True
USE_X_FORWARDED_PORT = True
Generate a Strong SECRET_KEY
# generate_secret_key.py
from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key
print(f"Your new SECRET_KEY: {get_random_secret_key()}")
Pro Tip: Never commit your SECRET_KEY to version control! Use environment variables or secret management tools like AWS Secrets Manager or HashiCorp Vault.
Security Tip #2: Implement Proper Authentication & Authorization
The Problem
Weak authentication allows attackers to gain unauthorized access. Poor authorization lets users access data they shouldn't see.
The Solution
# settings.py
AUTH_PASSWORD_VALIDATORS = [
{
'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.UserAttributeSimilarityValidator',
},
{
'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.MinimumLengthValidator',
'OPTIONS': {
'min_length': 12, # Require strong passwords
}
},
{
'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.CommonPasswordValidator',
},
{
'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.NumericPasswordValidator',
},
]
# Session Security
SESSION_COOKIE_AGE = 3600 # 1 hour
SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY = True # Prevent JavaScript access
SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE = 'Strict' # Prevent CSRF
SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST = True # Extend session on activity
# Password hashing (use Argon2 for best security)
PASSWORD_HASHERS = [
'django.contrib.auth.hashers.Argon2PasswordHasher',
'django.contrib.auth.hashers.PBKDF2PasswordHasher',
'django.contrib.auth.hashers.PBKDF2SHA1PasswordHasher',
]
Install Argon2
pip install django[argon2]
Implement Two-Factor Authentication
# Install django-otp
pip install django-otp qrcode
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ...
'django_otp',
'django_otp.plugins.otp_totp',
]
MIDDLEWARE = [
# ...
'django_otp.middleware.OTPMiddleware',
]
# views.py
from django_otp.decorators import otp_required
@otp_required
def sensitive_view(request):
# This view requires 2FA
return render(request, 'sensitive.html')
Advanced: Rate Limiting Login Attempts
# middleware.py
from django.core.cache import cache
from django.http import HttpResponseForbidden
import time
class LoginRateLimitMiddleware:
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
if request.path == '/accounts/login/' and request.method == 'POST':
ip = self.get_client_ip(request)
cache_key = f'login_attempts_{ip}'
attempts = cache.get(cache_key, 0)
if attempts >= 5: # Max 5 attempts
return HttpResponseForbidden(
'Too many login attempts. Try again in 15 minutes.'
)
cache.set(cache_key, attempts + 1, 900) # 15 minutes
return self.get_response(request)
def get_client_ip(self, request):
x_forwarded_for = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')
if x_forwarded_for:
ip = x_forwarded_for.split(',')[0]
else:
ip = request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR')
return ip
Security Tip #3: Prevent SQL Injection Attacks
The Problem
SQL injection is one of the most common and dangerous vulnerabilities. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary database queries.
The Solution
❌ NEVER DO THIS:
# DANGEROUS! Vulnerable to SQL injection
def get_user_data(request):
user_id = request.GET.get('id')
query = f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = {user_id}"
cursor.execute(query) # UNSAFE!
✅ ALWAYS DO THIS:
# SAFE: Use Django ORM
def get_user_data(request):
user_id = request.GET.get('id')
user = User.objects.filter(id=user_id).first()
# SAFE: Use parameterized queries if you need raw SQL
def get_user_data_raw(request):
user_id = request.GET.get('id')
cursor.execute(
"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = %s",
[user_id] # Parameters are properly escaped
)
Additional Protection: Input Validation
from django.core.validators import validate_email
from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
def create_user(request):
email = request.POST.get('email')
try:
validate_email(email)
except ValidationError:
return JsonResponse({'error': 'Invalid email'}, status=400)
# Safe to proceed
User.objects.create(email=email)
Security Tip #4: Protect Against XSS (Cross-Site Scripting)
The Problem
XSS attacks inject malicious JavaScript into your pages, stealing cookies, sessions, and sensitive data.
The Solution
# Django automatically escapes variables in templates
# This is SAFE:
<p>{{ user.name }}</p> <!-- Automatically escaped -->
# If you MUST render HTML, sanitize it first
# Install bleach
pip install bleach
# utils.py
import bleach
ALLOWED_TAGS = ['p', 'br', 'strong', 'em', 'a']
ALLOWED_ATTRIBUTES = {'a': ['href', 'title']}
def sanitize_html(dirty_html):
return bleach.clean(
dirty_html,
tags=ALLOWED_TAGS,
attributes=ALLOWED_ATTRIBUTES,
strip=True
)
# views.py
from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe
def display_content(request):
user_content = request.POST.get('content')
clean_content = sanitize_html(user_content)
return render(request, 'page.html', {
'content': mark_safe(clean_content)
})
Content Security Policy (CSP)
# Install django-csp
pip install django-csp
# settings.py
MIDDLEWARE = [
# ...
'csp.middleware.CSPMiddleware',
]
CSP_DEFAULT_SRC = ("'self'",)
CSP_SCRIPT_SRC = ("'self'", 'cdn.jsdelivr.net')
CSP_STYLE_SRC = ("'self'", 'fonts.googleapis.com')
CSP_FONT_SRC = ("'self'", 'fonts.gstatic.com')
CSP_IMG_SRC = ("'self'", 'data:', 'https:')
CSP_CONNECT_SRC = ("'self'",)
Security Tip #5: Secure File Uploads
The Problem
Unrestricted file uploads can lead to remote code execution, malware distribution, and server compromise.
The Solution
# settings.py
# Limit file upload size
DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE = 5242880 # 5MB
FILE_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE = 5242880 # 5MB
# Restrict file types
ALLOWED_UPLOAD_EXTENSIONS = ['.jpg', '.jpeg', '.png', '.pdf', '.docx']
# Store uploads outside web root
MEDIA_ROOT = '/var/www/media/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
# models.py
from django.core.validators import FileExtensionValidator
from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
def validate_file_size(file):
max_size_mb = 5
if file.size > max_size_mb * 1024 * 1024:
raise ValidationError(f'File size cannot exceed {max_size_mb}MB')
class Document(models.Model):
file = models.FileField(
upload_to='documents/%Y/%m/%d/',
validators=[
FileExtensionValidator(
allowed_extensions=['pdf', 'docx', 'jpg', 'png']
),
validate_file_size,
]
)
# views.py
from PIL import Image
import magic
def upload_image(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
uploaded_file = request.FILES['image']
# Verify file type using python-magic
file_type = magic.from_buffer(uploaded_file.read(1024), mime=True)
uploaded_file.seek(0)
if file_type not in ['image/jpeg', 'image/png']:
return JsonResponse({'error': 'Invalid file type'}, status=400)
# Verify image integrity
try:
img = Image.open(uploaded_file)
img.verify()
except Exception:
return JsonResponse({'error': 'Corrupted image'}, status=400)
# Safe to save
document = Document.objects.create(file=uploaded_file)
return JsonResponse({'success': True})
Scan Uploads for Malware
# Install ClamAV
pip install clamd
# utils.py
import clamd
def scan_file_for_malware(file_path):
cd = clamd.ClamdUnixSocket()
scan_result = cd.scan(file_path)
if scan_result[file_path][0] == 'FOUND':
return False, scan_result[file_path][1] # Malware found
return True, None # Clean
Security Tip #6: Protect Your APIs
The Problem
APIs are prime targets for attacks: brute force, data scraping, DDoS, and more.
The Solution
# Install Django REST Framework and throttling
pip install djangorestframework
# settings.py
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
'rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication',
'rest_framework_simplejwt.authentication.JWTAuthentication',
],
'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [
'rest_framework.permissions.IsAuthenticated',
],
'DEFAULT_THROTTLE_CLASSES': [
'rest_framework.throttling.AnonRateThrottle',
'rest_framework.throttling.UserRateThrottle',
],
'DEFAULT_THROTTLE_RATES': {
'anon': '100/hour',
'user': '1000/hour',
},
'DEFAULT_RENDERER_CLASSES': [
'rest_framework.renderers.JSONRenderer',
],
}
# Use JWT for stateless authentication
SIMPLE_JWT = {
'ACCESS_TOKEN_LIFETIME': timedelta(minutes=15),
'REFRESH_TOKEN_LIFETIME': timedelta(days=1),
'ROTATE_REFRESH_TOKENS': True,
'BLACKLIST_AFTER_ROTATION': True,
}
# views.py - Custom throttling
from rest_framework.throttling import UserRateThrottle
class BurstRateThrottle(UserRateThrottle):
scope = 'burst'
rate = '10/min'
class SustainedRateThrottle(UserRateThrottle):
scope = 'sustained'
rate = '1000/day'
class MyAPIView(APIView):
throttle_classes = [BurstRateThrottle, SustainedRateThrottle]
def get(self, request):
return Response({'data': 'protected'})
API Key Management
# models.py
import secrets
class APIKey(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
key = models.CharField(max_length=64, unique=True)
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
last_used = models.DateTimeField(null=True)
is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True)
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
if not self.key:
self.key = secrets.token_urlsafe(32)
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
# authentication.py
from rest_framework.authentication import BaseAuthentication
from rest_framework.exceptions import AuthenticationFailed
class APIKeyAuthentication(BaseAuthentication):
def authenticate(self, request):
api_key = request.META.get('HTTP_X_API_KEY')
if not api_key:
return None
try:
key_obj = APIKey.objects.get(key=api_key, is_active=True)
key_obj.last_used = timezone.now()
key_obj.save(update_fields=['last_used'])
return (key_obj.user, None)
except APIKey.DoesNotExist:
raise AuthenticationFailed('Invalid API key')
Security Tip #7: Database Security Best Practices
The Problem
Database breaches expose sensitive user data, leading to regulatory fines and loss of trust.
The Solution
# settings.py - Use environment variables
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
'NAME': os.environ.get('DB_NAME'),
'USER': os.environ.get('DB_USER'),
'PASSWORD': os.environ.get('DB_PASSWORD'),
'HOST': os.environ.get('DB_HOST'),
'PORT': os.environ.get('DB_PORT', '5432'),
'OPTIONS': {
'sslmode': 'require', # Require SSL connection
'connect_timeout': 10,
},
'CONN_MAX_AGE': 600,
}
}
# Encrypt sensitive data
pip install django-fernet-fields
# models.py
from fernet_fields import EncryptedTextField, EncryptedCharField
class UserProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
ssn = EncryptedCharField(max_length=11) # Encrypted at rest
credit_card = EncryptedCharField(max_length=16)
address = EncryptedTextField()
# Backup encryption key in settings.py
FERNET_KEYS = [
os.environ.get('FERNET_KEY'),
]
Database Access Control
-- Create read-only user for reporting
CREATE USER reporting_user WITH PASSWORD 'strong_password';
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE mydb TO reporting_user;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO reporting_user;
-- Create limited user for application
CREATE USER app_user WITH PASSWORD 'strong_password';
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE mydb TO app_user;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO app_user;
REVOKE CREATE ON SCHEMA public FROM app_user;
Audit Logging
# Install django-auditlog
pip install django-auditlog
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ...
'auditlog',
]
# models.py
from auditlog.registry import auditlog
class SensitiveData(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
data = models.TextField()
auditlog.register(SensitiveData)
# Now all changes are automatically logged!
Security Tip #8: Implement Security Monitoring
The Problem
You can't fix what you don't know about. Without monitoring, breaches go undetected for months.
The Solution
# Install Sentry for error tracking
pip install sentry-sdk
# settings.py
import sentry_sdk
from sentry_sdk.integrations.django import DjangoIntegration
sentry_sdk.init(
dsn=os.environ.get('SENTRY_DSN'),
integrations=[DjangoIntegration()],
traces_sample_rate=1.0,
send_default_pii=False, # Don't send personally identifiable information
environment=os.environ.get('ENVIRONMENT', 'production'),
)
# Custom security event logging
# middleware.py
import logging
security_logger = logging.getLogger('security')
class SecurityMonitoringMiddleware:
def __init__(self, get_response):
self.get_response = get_response
def __call__(self, request):
# Log suspicious activity
if self.is_suspicious(request):
security_logger.warning(
f'Suspicious request from {self.get_client_ip(request)}',
extra={
'ip': self.get_client_ip(request),
'path': request.path,
'user': request.user.username if request.user.is_authenticated else 'anonymous',
'user_agent': request.META.get('HTTP_USER_AGENT'),
}
)
response = self.get_response(request)
return response
def is_suspicious(self, request):
# Check for common attack patterns
suspicious_patterns = [
'../', '..\\', # Path traversal
'<script', 'javascript:', # XSS attempts
'union select', 'drop table', # SQL injection
'<?php', # PHP code injection
]
query_string = request.META.get('QUERY_STRING', '').lower()
path = request.path.lower()
return any(pattern in query_string or pattern in path
for pattern in suspicious_patterns)
def get_client_ip(self, request):
x_forwarded_for = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')
if x_forwarded_for:
ip = x_forwarded_for.split(',')[0]
else:
ip = request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR')
return ip
# settings.py - Configure logging
LOGGING = {
'version': 1,
'disable_existing_loggers': False,
'formatters': {
'verbose': {
'format': '{levelname} {asctime} {module} {message}',
'style': '{',
},
},
'handlers': {
'file': {
'level': 'WARNING',
'class': 'logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler',
'filename': '/var/log/django/security.log',
'maxBytes': 1024 * 1024 * 15, # 15MB
'backupCount': 10,
'formatter': 'verbose',
},
},
'loggers': {
'security': {
'handlers': ['file'],
'level': 'WARNING',
'propagate': False,
},
},
}
Security Tip #9: Secure Your Dependencies
The Problem
Third-party packages can have vulnerabilities that compromise your entire application.
The Solution
# Install safety to check for known vulnerabilities
pip install safety
# Check your dependencies
safety check
# Scan with Bandit for security issues in your code
pip install bandit
bandit -r . -f json -o security-report.json
# Keep dependencies updated
pip install pip-audit
pip-audit
# Use requirements with pinned versions
pip freeze > requirements.txt

Security Tip #10: Handle High Traffic Securely
The Problem
Traffic spikes can bring down your application or be exploited for DDoS attacks.
The Solution
1. Implement Caching
# settings.py
CACHES = {
'default': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.redis.RedisCache',
'LOCATION': os.environ.get('REDIS_URL', 'redis://127.0.0.1:6379/1'),
'OPTIONS': {
'CLIENT_CLASS': 'django_redis.client.DefaultClient',
'PASSWORD': os.environ.get('REDIS_PASSWORD'),
},
'KEY_PREFIX': 'myapp',
'TIMEOUT': 300,
}
}
# views.py
from django.views.decorators.cache import cache_page
from django.core.cache import cache
@cache_page(60 * 15) # Cache for 15 minutes
def homepage(request):
return render(request, 'home.html')
# Cache expensive queries
def get_popular_posts():
cache_key = 'popular_posts'
posts = cache.get(cache_key)
if posts is None:
posts = Post.objects.annotate(
like_count=Count('likes')
).order_by('-like_count')[:10]
cache.set(cache_key, posts, 3600) # Cache for 1 hour
return posts
2. Database Connection Pooling
# settings.py
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
# ...
'CONN_MAX_AGE': 600, # Keep connections alive for 10 minutes
'OPTIONS': {
'pool': True,
'pool_size': 20, # Maximum connections in pool
'max_overflow': 10, # Additional connections when pool is full
},
}
}
# Install pgbouncer for production
# Ubuntu/Debian:
# sudo apt-get install pgbouncer
3. Load Balancing with Nginx
# /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp
upstream django_app {
least_conn; # Use least connections algorithm
server 127.0.0.1:8001 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
server 127.0.0.1:8002 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
server 127.0.0.1:8003 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name myapp.com;
# Rate limiting
limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=general:10m rate=10r/s;
limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=api:10m rate=100r/s;
# DDoS protection
client_body_timeout 10s;
client_header_timeout 10s;
keepalive_timeout 5s 5s;
send_timeout 10s;
location / {
limit_req zone=general burst=20 nodelay;
proxy_pass http://django_app;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}
location /api/ {
limit_req zone=api burst=50 nodelay;
proxy_pass http://django_app;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}
# Serve static files directly
location /static/ {
alias /var/www/myapp/staticfiles/;
expires 30d;
add_header Cache-Control "public, immutable";
}
}
4. Asynchronous Task Processing
# Install Celery
pip install celery redis
# celery.py
from celery import Celery
import os
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'myproject.settings')
app = Celery('myproject')
app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings', namespace='CELERY')
app.autodiscover_tasks()
# settings.py
CELERY_BROKER_URL = os.environ.get('REDIS_URL', 'redis://localhost:6379/0')
CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = os.environ.get('REDIS_URL', 'redis://localhost:6379/0')
CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT = ['json']
CELERY_TASK_SERIALIZER = 'json'
CELERY_RESULT_SERIALIZER = 'json'
CELERY_TIMEZONE = 'UTC'
# tasks.py
from celery import shared_task
from django.core.mail import send_mail
@shared_task
def send_email_async(subject, message, recipient):
send_mail(
subject,
message,
'noreply@myapp.com',
[recipient],
fail_silently=False,
)
# views.py
def register_user(request):
# ... user registration logic ...
# Send welcome email asynchronously
send_email_async.delay(
'Welcome to MyApp',
'Thank you for registering!',
user.email
)
return redirect('dashboard')
5. Auto-Scaling Configuration
# docker-compose.yml with auto-scaling
