+Best Practices
+==============
+
+This section provides the best practices to follow for your cloud.
+
+The following are some of the best practices:
+
+- Configure 'api.allowed.source.cidr.list' at cloud level or an account
+ level to limit source IPs where the API requests are allowed from.
+
+- Setup fail2ban or similar tools to avoid any brute-force attempts
+ for any operations.
