Keep input validation enabled. MongoDB enables input validation by default
through the :setting:`~net.wireObjectCheck` setting. This ensures that all
documents stored by the :program:`mongod` instance are valid :term:`BSON`.

Consider Security Standards Compliance
--------------------------------------
For applications requiring HIPAA or PCI-DSS compliance, please refer to the
`MongoDB Security Reference Architecture <http://info.mongodb.com/rs/mongodb/images/MongoDB_Security_Architecture_WP.pdf>`_ to learn more about the key security
capabilities of MongoDB and how they can be used in building a compliant
database.

Contact MongoDB for Further Guidance

MongoDB provides a Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) upon
request. Please `contact MongoDB <http://www.mongodb.com/lp/contact/stig-requests>`_ for a copy.
