Nokod Security is building a platform that enables organizations to secure in-house low-code/no-code custom applications by scanning for security and compliance issues and applying remediation policies
Latest coverage for No-Code
No-code platforms can speed development but may introduce insecure workflows, excessive permissions, and data exposure when security controls are overlooked.

Tag briefing
Background for this topic.
No-code is software development through visual builders, forms, workflows, and pre-built components rather than hand-written application code. It lets non-specialists create internal tools, automate business processes, and connect services, while the platform usually operates the underlying runtime and infrastructure. The term can include low-code products, but this tag focuses on applications built with little or no custom programming.
Security risk often shifts from source-code flaws to configuration, identity, and data-flow decisions. A rapidly created app may expose sensitive records through excessive permissions, weak authentication, public sharing, or an unsafe third-party integration; embedded scripts, connectors, and uploaded secrets can also expand the attack surface. Security teams should maintain an inventory of no-code apps and their owners, review permissions and data retention, enforce approved connectors and secret handling, and assess vendor controls. Testing should cover authorization and workflow abuse, while logging and documented ownership support vulnerability remediation and incident response.
