How do you secure Redis in production environments?

Detailed Explanation
Redis security best practices: • Authentication:** # redis.conf requirepass your_strong_password_here # ACL (Redis 6+) user default off user app_user on >app_password ~app:* +@read +@write -@dangerous user admin_user on >admin_password ~* +@all • Network Security:** # Bind to specific interfaces bind 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.100 # Change default port port 6380 # Disable dangerous commands rename-command FLUSHDB "" rename-command FLUSHALL "" rename-command DEBUG "" • TLS/SSL Encryption:** # redis.conf port 0 tls-port 6380 tls-cert-file /path/to/redis.crt tls-key-file /path/to/redis.key tls-ca-cert-file /path/to/ca.crt • Client Connection:** # Python with SSL import redis r = redis.Redis( host='redis.example.com', port=6380, password='your_password', ssl=True, ssl_cert_reqs='required', ssl_ca_certs='/path/to/ca.crt' ) **Security Checklist:** • Enable authentication • Use ACLs for fine-grained access • Enable TLS encryption • Bind to specific interfaces • Change default port • Disable dangerous commands • Set up proper firewall rules
