Hi @Omnislash. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Hello! I'd be happy to answer your question about nuxt-security and its importance for Nuxt 3 websites. Nuxt-security is not mandatory to have a safe Nuxt 3 website, but it does provide an extra layer of protection that can be beneficial, especially for more complex applications. For a front-end only Nuxt application hosted on Cloudflare Pages, many of the basic security measures are already in place. According to the Nuxt documentation on Cloudflare Pages deployment, Nuxt has built-in integration with Cloudflare Pages, which provides some level of security out of the box. However, there are a few things to consider: 1. Cloudflare itself offers some security features. As mentioned in the Nuxt documentation on CDN Proxy, you should be careful with some Cloudflare settings to avoid issues with your Nuxt application. 2. Nuxt 3 has some built-in security features. For example, it provides useHeadSafe composable for safely adding head elements, which can help prevent XSS attacks. 3. Nuxt-security can add additional layers of protection. It can help with things like setting up Content Security Policies (CSP), which can be particularly useful for preventing certain types of attacks. While nuxt-security is not mandatory, it can be a valuable addition to your security setup, especially if you're handling sensitive data or want to implement more advanced security measures. However, for a basic front-end only application, the security measures provided by Nuxt 3 and Cloudflare Pages may be sufficient. Remember, security is always about layers. While nuxt-security isn't mandatory, it's always good to consider additional security measures based on your specific needs and the sensitivity of your application. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
