The Cloudflare API token should be stored securely to prevent unauthorized access. Consider using environment variables, ideally in a non-persistent manner (e.g., set just before running Certbot). Avoid storing the token directly in the command-line arguments or configuration files. Use tools like `docker secrets`, or encrypted configuration files that can be accessed only during runtime to further enhance security.
