If your app uses a web server, a framework, an app platform, a database, a network or contains any code, you’re at risk of security misconfiguration. So that would be all of us then. This is where security configuration (or misconfiguration, as it may be), comes into play. How configurable settings within the app are handled – not code, just configurations – can have a fundamental impact on the security of the app. Fortunately, it’s not hard to lock things down pretty tightly, you just need to know where to look.
