Monitoring & Alerting

Generating Secrets

# Generate JWT secret
openssl rand -base64 64

# Generate strong password
openssl rand -base64 32 | tr -d /=+ | cut -c1-25

  1. Isolate affected services
  2. Review logs: docker-compose logs > incident.log
  3. Rotate compromised secrets
  4. Restore from backup if needed
