+## Security model — trusted environments only
+
+Verso is designed for **closed groups of trusted users** (a lab, a class, a small
+team). All three compilers can execute arbitrary code on the server:
+
+- LaTeX with shell-escape enabled can run system commands.
+- Quarto Python cells execute Python code directly.
+- Typst's scripting layer is sandboxed by design, but runs server-side.
+
+There is **no per-project sandbox or resource isolation** beyond what the
+operating system provides. Exposing Verso to the public internet with
+open registration is not recommended. If you need to host a collaborative
+LaTeX/Typst editor for untrusted users or at scale, look at
+[Overleaf's non-Community offerings](https://www.overleaf.com/for/enterprises),
+which include proper sandboxing and enterprise access controls.
