+#### Completed Features ✅
+
+1. **Helmet.js Security Headers** ✅ COMPLETED
+   - Status: **IMPLEMENTED**
+   - Current: Comprehensive HTTP security headers with CSP
+   - Implemented:
+     * Content-Security-Policy with strict defaults
+     * Allows GraphQL Playground ('unsafe-inline', 'unsafe-eval')
+     * HSTS with 1-year max-age and subdomain inclusion
+     * X-Frame-Options: DENY
+     * X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
+     * Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
+     * Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy: cross-origin
+   - Files: main.ts (lines 9-41)
+   - Package: helmet@8.1.0
+   - Priority: High ✅ **COMPLETE**
+   - Impact: XSS and clickjacking protection
+
+2. **CORS Configuration with Strict Whitelisting** ✅ COMPLETED
+   - Status: **IMPLEMENTED**
+   - Current: Strict origin validation with production domain support
+   - Implemented:
+     * Origin validation callback checks against whitelist
+     * Development origins: localhost:19000, 3001, 3030
+     * Production origins: maternal.noru1.ro, maternal-api.noru1.ro
+     * Allows no-origin requests (mobile apps, Postman)
+     * Logs warnings for blocked origins
+     * 24-hour preflight cache (maxAge: 86400)
+     * Credentials support enabled
+   - Files: main.ts (lines 43-76)
+   - Priority: High ✅ **COMPLETE**
+   - Impact: XSS protection and cross-origin security
+
+3. **Comprehensive Input Validation** ✅ COMPLETED
+   - Status: **IMPLEMENTED**
+   - Current: Global ValidationPipe with security settings
+   - Implemented:
+     * whitelist: true (strips non-decorated properties)
+     * forbidNonWhitelisted: true (throws error for unknown fields)
+     * transform: true (auto-transform to DTO instances)
+     * enableImplicitConversion: true (convert primitive types)
+     * disableErrorMessages in production (hides validation details)
+     * validationError: target/value hidden (no info leakage)
+     * Enhanced DTOs with Transform decorators and regex validation
+   - Files: main.ts (lines 78-93), chat-message.dto.ts, create-feedback.dto.ts
+   - Priority: High ✅ **COMPLETE**
+   - Impact: Input sanitization and data quality
+
+4. **Testing Verification** ✅ COMPLETED
+   - Status: **VERIFIED**
+   - Current: Security headers and CORS tested and confirmed
+   - Verified:
+     * All Helmet headers present in HTTP responses
+     * CORS blocks unauthorized origins (500 error, no Access-Control header)
+     * CORS allows whitelisted origins (Access-Control-Allow-Origin header)
+     * Backend compiles with 0 errors
+   - Priority: High ✅ **COMPLETE**
+   - Impact: Security configuration validated
+
+#### Remaining Features
+
+5. **SQL Injection Prevention**
+   - Status: TypeORM provides protection
+   - Current: ORM-based
+   - Needed: Verify all raw queries are parameterized
+   - Priority: High
+   - Impact: Security critical
+
+6. **Data Encryption at Rest**
+   - Status: Not implemented
+   - Current: Plain text in database
+   - Needed: Encrypt sensitive fields (medical info, notes)
+   - Priority: Medium
+   - Impact: Privacy enhancement
