Ghost is a Node.js publishing platform with admin API and member authentication. Hardening should protect admin routes, secrets, and mail or payment integrations.
¶ 1) Protect secrets and administrative access
- keep config production JSON and database credentials private
- secure admin URL access with MFA for administrator accounts
¶ 2) Control extensions and update cadence
- patch Ghost and Node runtime on release cadence
- restrict integration tokens and custom app keys by purpose
¶ 3) Harden runtime and deployment perimeter
- enforce HTTPS, secure cookies, and reverse-proxy rate limits for login endpoints
- monitor member auth and webhook abuse patterns
