@chilly-king-10285 Are there any security concerns I should be aware of if I am not using the Go SDK but instead directly interacting with the HTTP API Endpoints

While the provided knowledge sources do not directly address security concerns when interacting with HTTP API Endpoints without using the Go SDK, they do provide some insights into how Ory handles data privacy and security. Ory takes several measures to protect your privacy. For instance, it only transmits information on how often endpoints are requested, how fast they respond, and what HTTP status code was sent. It filters out any query parameters, headers, response and request bodies, and path parameters. Ory is unable to see or store the IP address of your host, as the IP is set to
0.0.0.0
when transmitting data to their metrics aggregator. It doesn't transmit any environment information from the host, except for a few specific details like operating system id, target architecture, number of CPUs available, binary build time, git hash, git tag, and memory consumption of the process. The information is stored in an aggregated format without any personally identifiable information. [source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/ecosystem/sqa#data-privacy) However, when interacting directly with the HTTP API Endpoints, it's crucial to ensure that you're following best practices for secure communication, such as using HTTPS for all requests, validating all inputs, and handling errors securely. It's also important to manage your API keys securely, as they are needed to call some of Ory APIs. [source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/upgrade/sdk-v1#upgrade-guide) For more detailed information on security considerations when using Ory, I would recommend referring to the official Ory documentation or reaching out to the Ory community.
