PRODUCTION OPERATIONS
Private by default.
Observable by design.
The public site explains the product. The terminal, data, user administration, and operational controls remain behind authenticated access.

- Mandatory password change for new and reset users
- Session revocation on password rotation
- Inactive accounts cannot sign in or refresh
AUTHENTICATIONDefensive sign-in
Login attempts are throttled by email and source address. Passwords are entered through secure prompts and must not be placed in logs or command history.
- Five failed attempts per 15-minute window
- Redis-backed throttling
- HTTPS-only production access
DELIVERYImmutable deployment
Passing main-branch changes produce a commit-addressed image, migrate the database, update ECS, and finish with an HTTPS smoke test.
- Separate publisher and deployer roles
- Health-check rollback
- Production deployment alerts
RECOVERYMonitored pilot
The pilot stays cost-aware and single-AZ while alarms watch application health, infrastructure pressure, and storage.
