+.NET Aspire exposes two default health check HTTP endpoints in **Development** environments when the `AddServiceDefaults` and `MapDefaultEndpoints` methods are called from the _Program.cs_ file:
- The `/health` endpoint indicates if the app is running normally where it's ready to receive requests. All health checks must pass for app to be considered ready to accept traffic after starting.

The `AddServiceDefaults` and `MapDefaultEndpoints` methods also apply various configurations to your app beyond just health checks, such as OpenTelemetry and service discovery configurations.
+### Non-development environments
+
+In non-development environments, the `/health` and `/alive` endpoints are disabled by default. If you need to enable them, its recommended to protect these endpoints with various routing features, such as host filtering and/or authorization. For more information, see [Health checks in ASP.NET Core](/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/health-checks#use-health-checks-routing).
+
+Additionally, it may advantageous to configure request timeouts and output caching for these endpoints to prevent abuse or denial-of-service attacks. To do so, consider the following modified `AddDefaultHealthChecks` method:
+
+:::code language="csharp" source="snippets/healthz/Healthz.ServiceDefaults/Extensions.cs" id="healthchecks":::
+
+The preceding code:
+
+- Adds a timeout of 5 seconds to the health check requests with a policy named `HealthChecks`.
+- Adds a 10-second cache to the health check responses with a policy named `HealthChecks`.
+
+Now consider the updated `MapDefaultEndpoints` method:
+
+:::code language="csharp" source="snippets/healthz/Healthz.ServiceDefaults/Extensions.cs" id="mapendpoints":::
+
+The preceding code:
+
+- Groups the health check endpoints under the `/` path.
+- Caches the output and specifies a request time with the corresponding `HealthChecks` policy.
+
## Component health checks
.NET Aspire components can also register additional health checks for your app. These health checks contribute to the returned status of the `/health` and `/alive` endpoints. For example, the .NET Aspire PostgreSQL component automatically adds a health check to verify the following conditions:
