Hi!

I just wanted to know if it’s possible to change the password to Dradis? And is there a way to add more security to Dradis itself? The fact that Dradis runs on a local web server is secure but is it secure enough? Will my server be safe from malicious people etc.?

Hi @socksyfox001,

Yes, it is possible, when you start Dradis the first time around, you can choose your own password. Every time you start a new project, you choose a new password.

By default Dradis only listens in the local loopback interface, so no one in any other host, even in your local network has access to it (you can configure the bind address with the `-b` parameter though).

HTH,
