To harden OFBiz for production, apply security configurations to `security.properties` and manage webapp loading via `component-load.xml` to minimize the attack surface, enforce password policies, and secure HTTP boundaries.

Enforcing strong password policies in OFBiz requires configuring global security properties within the `security.properties` file to mandate password complexity, secure hashing, and regular password expiration for production deployments.

Preventing webshell uploads in OFBiz involves securing file upload configurations by restricting permissible file types and strictly controlling upload directories to block malicious script execution.

Minimizing the OFBiz attack surface is achieved by implementing web application firewalling techniques, specifically restricting exposed webapps through `component-load.xml` and establishing HTTP boundary protections against CSRF and Host Header Injection.

OFBiz production hardening involves securing Tomcat server settings to establish network-level defenses and HTTP boundary protections, ensuring the deployment is protected against common web attacks.

You need to configure global security properties in OFBiz when moving an instance to a live environment, utilizing `security.properties` to apply production-ready hardening and enforce strict operational defenses.
