Subject: [PATCH] Hardening suggestions for Stirling-PDF / enterpriseStuff
 (#3242)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

I've reviewed the recently opened PR ([3241 - Security fixes, enterprise
stuff and
more](https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/pull/3241)) and
have identified some area(s) that could benefit from additional
hardening measures.

These changes should help prevent potential security vulnerabilities and
improve overall code quality.

Thank you for your consideration!
