How to Review Cybersecurity Risks Before Enabling Public File Uploads

Public uploads can introduce malware, abusive content, storage exhaustion, and access to other users’ files.

Checks to make

Define allowed file types and size, scan content, isolate storage, use generated names, and enforce per-user quotas and rate limits. Test access separation and deletion, and monitor upload failures and abuse patterns.
