Security Considerations
✅ Authentication: All views require @login_required
✅ Authorization: Role-based filtering at model level
✅ SQL Injection: Uses Django ORM parameterized queries
✅ XSS Protection: Template auto-escaping enabled
✅ CSRF Protection: Django CSRF middleware active
✅ Data Access: Users can only access data they're authorized to see
