These include Cloudflare-based DDoS mitigation and WAF using the OWASP Core Ruleset, automatic SSL certificate provisioning, security response headers, rate limiting, and PHP runtime patching without maintenance windows. Tenant isolation is enforced via Kubernetes namespaces and network policies, with a Private Cloud option for dedicated infrastructure. The platform also runs composer audit checks at deploy time to flag vulnerable dependencies before they ship. For compliance, Laravel Cloud is SOC 2 Type II attested with GDPR/CCPA support, and offers RBAC, SSO/SAML, detailed audit logs, and encrypted backups out of the box. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

CVE-2026-6722 was a remote code execution vulnerability in PHP's SOAP extension, rated 9.5 out of 10 on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System. Proof-of-concept exploit code began circulating within days of the advisory being published, making rapid patching critical for any server running the affected SOAP extension code. _Developers tracking PHP CVEs and patch urgency can follow security advisories like this one on daily.dev._ ### How can I check my composer.lock for known vulnerable PHP packages before deploying? Run composer audit --locked --no-dev, which scans composer.lock against the PHP Security Advisories Database and exits with a non-zero status if a match is found, making it suitable for failing a CI build automatically. In 2025 alone, more than 400 PHP package vulnerabilities were added to that advisories database. _Teams comparing dependency-scanning workflows can keep tabs on PHP package security practices via daily.dev._ ### What rate limit does Laravel Cloud apply to incoming requests by default? Laravel Cloud's default policy intercepts requests from any single IP address that exceeds 100 requests per minute. Users on the Growth or Business plan can raise, lower, or replace this rule from the dashboard, while Starter plan users get the default threshold with edge-level DDoS mitigation included on every plan. _Anyone evaluating managed hosting rate-limit defaults can compare platform choices through daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Best Practices for Scalable Cloud Infrastructure with Laravel Cloud](https://daily.dev/posts/best-practices-for-scalable-cloud-infrastructure-with-laravel-cloud-iqpixv89d) · Laravel · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Laravel Cloud API and CLI: Ship Faster, Automate More](https://daily.dev/posts/laravel-cloud-api-and-cli-ship-faster-automate-more-brfolid9r) · Laravel · 3 upvotes · 0 comments - [Is Laravel Secure by Default?](https://daily.dev/posts/is-laravel-secure-by-default--ailecotze) · Larablog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Scheduled Autoscaling for Laravel Cloud](https://daily.dev/posts/scheduled-autoscaling-for-laravel-cloud-vbjvmbx7o) · Laravel · 8 upvotes · 1 comments --- Tags: [#security](https://daily.dev/tags/security), [#cloud](https://daily.dev/tags/cloud), [#php](https://daily.dev/tags/php), [#laravel](https://daily.dev/tags/laravel) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/laravel-cloud-security-defaults-behind-every-deploy-ufdpfttfb) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Laravel Cloud Security Defaults Behind Every Deploy","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/laravel-cloud-security-defaults-behind-every-deploy-ufdpfttfb","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/laravel-cloud-security-defaults-behind-every-deploy-ufdpfttfb"},"datePublished":"2026-07-08T15:14:18.995Z","dateModified":"2026-09-14T07:48:29.943Z","description":"Laravel Cloud provides a set of security defaults that run automatically on every deployment, removing the burden of manual infrastructure hardening.
