What RigShare does to keep the rig yours, and what it leaves to you.

• Stored hashed (PBKDF2-SHA256, salted), never in plain text.
• At least 8 characters.
• Unknown usernames take as long to reject as wrong passwords, so accounts cannot be discovered by timing.
• Five failed logins from one address in a minute blocks that address for a minute.
• There are no default accounts. The first admin is created on first run, and only while no account exists.

• Signing in issues a JWT (HS256), signed with a 64-byte random key generated on first start (secret.key, file mode 600).
• Tokens live 12 hours and are silently renewed while in use. A login lasts at most 30 days.
• Each token names a server-side session. Logging out, changing a password or deleting an account ends access immediately, instead of whenever the token expires.
• Only HS256 is accepted, so alg: none and algorithm-swapping tokens are rejected. Signature, expiry, not-before and issuer are all checked.
• The token travels in an HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax cookie, Secure over HTTPS. Page scripts cannot read it, and other sites cannot make your browser use it for changes.

• Random 256-bit keys, stored only as SHA-256 hashes and shown once when created.
• They carry their owner's permissions, can be revoked at any time, and record when they were last used.

• The server checks identity and permissions on every websocket message and API call; the UI only mirrors them. A modified browser cannot impersonate someone else or edit without Edit.
• ComfyUI's queue, interrupt, free and upload endpoints are checked server-side, and so are saving (Edit) and deleting (Admin) workflow files (api_protection).
• Without Admin, account and server settings are refused.
• Without Manager, ComfyUI Manager's API is refused and its button hidden. Only a few read-only lookups the frontend makes for everyone stay open.
• A workflow in a restricted folder is refused to anyone not on the folder's list: joining it, reading it, its snapshots, and its file through ComfyUI's API.

• Use HTTPS. Over plain HTTP, the login and cookie cross the network in the clear. See Reverse proxy.
• Finish setup right away. Until the first admin exists, anyone who reaches the page can create it.
• Keep trusted IPs short. They skip every check.
• Custom nodes run code on the server. RigShare controls who uses ComfyUI, but anyone who can queue can run whatever nodes are installed. Give Queue to people you trust.
• Protect the data folder. secret.key signs sessions and users.json holds the hashes.
