Web security is concerned with assets or information that you have exposed on the internet via a web application.
In this chapter, we investigate the various security mechanisms available for our Jupyter Notebook.
An application would need more security if critical or personal information were used on it; for example, credit cards. At the other end of the spectrum would be a site that is only providing information that is generally known.
In the case of a Jupyter application, you have to make that decision. Is the application or data being exposed of high importance to your company or project? There are many Jupyter applications (or web applications in general) that do not require a high degree of security as the information/algorithms being used are generally known.
