Also ensure that HTTP compression is disabled to mitigate the BREACH attack.

Restrict admin actions to a specific range of IP addresses
----------------------------------------------------------

Configure ``allowed_admin_ranges`` in ``config.php`` to restrict the admin actions to trusted IP ranges.

This can be achieved with this kind of setting, usually using private IP ranges::

'allowed_admin_ranges' => [
'127.0.0.1/8',
'192.168.0.0/16',
'fd00::/8',
]

All requests originating from IP addresses outside of these ranges will not be able to execute admin actions.

Administrators connected from untrusted IP addresses will be able to use Nextcloud, but all admin specific actions will be hidden.

Use a dedicated domain for Nextcloud
