What does your project need?
Data to protect
Identify databases, uploads, volumes, configuration and secrets that cannot be rebuilt from the application code. Back them up and test a restore.
Network access
List the ports that must be public and those that should remain private. Configure authentication, TLS and firewall rules before accepting traffic.
Deployment and maintenance
Check how the service starts after a reboot, where logs are stored and who applies updates. Test a deployment and rollback without changing live customer data.
Planning
Access, backups and handover
Confirm the current product specifications and service responsibilities. Record who can approve a change and how to recover the service if it goes wrong.
