   - Prepared statements throughout

2. **Data Integrity**
   - Foreign key constraints on all relationships
   - `ON DELETE CASCADE` for proper cleanup
   - `UNIQUE` constraints prevent duplicates
   - `NOT NULL` constraints where appropriate

3. **Index Optimization**
   ```sql
   CREATE INDEX idx_users_email ON users(email) WHERE email IS NOT NULL;
   CREATE INDEX idx_identities_type_identifier ON identities(type, identifier);
   CREATE INDEX idx_user_roles_user_id ON user_roles(user_id);
   ```
   - Indexes on all frequently queried columns
   - Partial indexes for nullable columns
   - Composite indexes for multi-column queries

4. **Multi-Factor Authentication**
   - Separate `identities` table supports multiple auth methods
   - Email/password AND blockchain address per user
   - Proper credential storage (password hashes, not plaintext)

5. **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)**
   ```sql
   CREATE TYPE user_role AS ENUM ('ADMIN', 'STAFF', 'CLIENT');
   CREATE TABLE user_roles (
       user_id INTEGER REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
       role user_role NOT NULL,
       UNIQUE(user_id, role)
   );
   ```

6. **Automatic Timestamp Management**
   - Triggers update `updated_at` automatically
   - Prevents manual timestamp manipulation

7. **Password Security**
   - Stored in `credential` field as bcrypt hash
   - bcrypt with default cost (10) - industry standard
   - No plaintext passwords anywhere

#### ⚠️ Recommendations

1. **Database Connection Encryption** (Medium Priority)
   ```go
   // Current (auth-service/main.go:136)
   connStr := fmt.Sprintf("user=%s password=%s dbname=%s host=%s sslmode=disable", ...)

   // Recommended for production
   connStr := fmt.Sprintf("user=%s password=%s dbname=%s host=%s sslmode=require", ...)
   ```
   **Impact:** Medium
   **Fix:** Change `sslmode=disable` to `sslmode=require` in all services
   **Status:** Documented in DEPLOYMENT.md

2. **Database Backup Encryption**
   - Current backup script doesn't encrypt backups
   - Recommend: `pg_dump | gpg --encrypt > backup.sql.gpg`
   - Status: Documented but not implemented
