# Security
-> TODO: Add content
+## Avoid inline scripts and styles
+
+Inline scripts and styles should be avoided in almost all cases. In an effort to protect users from [XSS vulnerabilities](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting), we will be disabling inline scripts using Content Security Policy.
+
+## Including external resources
+
+External fonts, CSS, and JavaScript should never be used with the exception of Google Analytics and Piwik - and only when the instance has enabled it. Assets should always be hosted and served locally from the GitLab instance. Embedded resources via `iframes` should never be used except in certain circumstances such as with ReCaptcha, which cannot be used without an `iframe`.
