It's insecure, because you are not able to set user credentials. You can run this inside a Docker-Container, which is more secure. But you don't have user access control. I did not find anything inside the Documentation. You can use nginx as a reverse proxy with enabled https and some kind of authorization and delegate the traffic to the application server.
you can use either R or Python but not both at the same time as tableau server will allow only one external service host configuration.
Now you can use Python directly in Tableau calculated fields without any third-party components. We just announced the Beta for TabPy.
