How can I secure my Django Channels application?

To secure your Django Channels application, you should implement authentication, use secure WebSocket connections, and validate user input.

What authentication methods are recommended?

You can use token-based authentication, session-based authentication, or integrate with OAuth providers for securing WebSocket connections.

How do I implement token-based authentication?

You can use Django REST Framework's token authentication. Install it, create tokens for users, and include the token in your WebSocket connection headers.

Are there any best practices for validating user input?

Yes, always sanitize and validate input on both the client and server sides. Use Django's built-in validators and avoid executing any untrusted code.
