The lingering question of application code security follows, as stories of security breaches continue to pour, and remote teams across the world adopt low code for faster application delivery.

Most low code platforms enable non-technical users to build applications quickly and offer in-built security for various aspects of the application, such as APIs, data access, web front-ends, deployment, etc.

Do all of them pursue API security in the same vein? As per a Salt Security report, 27% of organizations running production APIs have no API security strategy at all.

Technology leaders need to review access to business-critical data exposed through low code applications closely from a security and governance point of view.

In this article, Chris Wysopal, CTO of Veracode, brings up the crucial discussion point of many low code platforms generating a good deal of proprietary software that is somewhat opaque, making security a challenge.

Lastly, low code development teams should have enough awareness towards potential threats and security risks.
