No-code platforms are transforming software development, enabling business users (i.e., citizen developers) to build applications without writing a single line of code. But securing no-code applications with traditional AppSec tools is like trying to tighten a screw with a hammer.
From data leakage to shadow engineering, no-code, robotic process automation (RPA) and AI apps create an expanding attack surface that is beyond the reach of standard curity controls. Since these applications don’t expose raw code, traditional AppSec testing methods fall short. Security teams must rethink their approach—shifting from code analysis to embedding security within no-code development processes so citizen developers can innovate without compromising security.
AppSec Does Not Account For No-Code Risks
AppSec has traditionally focused on custom-built, developer-driven applications,...
