It's super important for users to consider how to properly secure their installations. Let's add a link to the security checklist inside the production checklist in order to reinforce that importance. |

I think that's a great idea! I'll edit the ticket to reflect that. |

I think that's true too - can we put a pointer back to it somehow? Given the multi-year saga around unsecured/poorly secured Mongo instances, perhaps we could add a Note: Don't forget to secure your database - here's a link to the security checklist" (or something similar?) on https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/administration/production-checklist-operations/ ? |

Hi rachelle.palmer@mongodb.com, thanks for this ticket. I hear what you're saying about it seeming to make sense to keep all checklists in one place. I think the argument for putting the Security checklist with the other Security documentation is that a user thinking about security for their installation may be more inclined to click "Security" than "Administration." What do you think? |
