security overview

This is an administrative interface for storage infrastructure, so an exposed instance could give an attacker a path to sensitive configuration and data-management functions if they obtain access. Keep it on a restricted management network or behind a VPN, require strong authentication, and avoid direct internet exposure. No specific known vulnerability is implied by the port assignment.
