If you are using password authentication already, and don't allow
non-authenticated use of Trac, then about the only thing more that I can
see is to use SSL to serve Trac pages if you are not already, and if you
are concerned about password hacking you could go as far as SSL client
certificates, but that is hard to set up.

So, in short:
 * Authentication helps to protect you against unsolicited visitors
 * SSL encryption helps to protect you against eavesdroppers
 * SSL client certificates help to protect you against crackers

Subject: [Trac] How do I secure trac from anonymous users?


Dear Experts,

How do I ensure that only users with valid logins have access to my
trac instance? I removed all permissions from the anonymous user and
followed the instructions in the install guide to use htpasswd to
provide authenticated accounts to users. But it seems like it may/
should be possible to secure things further. What else can/should I do
to protect a trac instance accessable on the Internet as opposed to an
Intranet.

Thanks,
-Emin
