Secure Your {+atlas+} Deployments
72+
----------------------------------------
73+
74+
{+atlas+}, the fully managed service for MongoDB deployments
75+
in the cloud, comes preconfigured with secure default settings.
76+
Atlas also provides the following key security features:

* - Security Feature
83+
- Description
84+
85+
* - Authentication and Authorization
86+
- In Atlas, you configure database users to access your
87+
deployments. Atlas provides various ways to perform
88+
user authentication and authorization,
89+
including LDAP, OIDC, and X.509. To learn more, see
90+
:atlas:`Configure Authentication and Authorization
91+
</security/config-db-auth/>`.
92+
93+
* - Encryption
94+
- By default, Atlas encrypts all data stored in your
95+
deployments and uses TLS/SSL to encrypt the connections to your
96+
databases. To add another layer of security, you can configure
97+
:atlas:`Encryption at Rest using Customer Key Management
98+
</security-kms-encryption>`.
99+
100+
* - IP Access List
101+
- Atlas allows connections only from addresses specified in
102+
the IP access list. To learn how to manage client connections
103+
in Atlas, see :atlas:`Configure IP Access List Entries
104+
</security/ip-access-list/>`.
105+
106+
* - Cloud Provider Support
107+
- Atlas supports network peering connections and private endpoints
108+
to secure your deployments hosted on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
109+
To learn more, see :atlas:`Set Up a Network Peering Connection
110+
</security-vpc-peering/>` and :atlas:`Configure Private Endpoints
111+
</security-configure-private-endpoints/>`.
