Amogelang:

Needless to say that you probably want to protect on your webserver side
(nginx is expected in the example by Dannon) as opposed to the Galaxy
application side.

If you are really serious about this you should probably ask in a different
place than here e.g. at http://security.stackexchange.com/ and research
other reputable sources as our experience with this would be limited.

Thanks for using Galaxy.
