Study Notes
OutSystems Security
- OutSystems aims to achieve two main levels of security for applications: Infrastructure Security and Application Security.
- Applications built using OutSystems automatically include security protection against OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, including SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).
- OutSystems protects against reflected and stored XSS vulnerabilities using a combination of input validation, encoding, and secure coding practices.
- To protect against SQL injection attacks, OutSystems uses a mechanism called SQL parameterization, which separates code from user input data to prevent malicious SQL statements.
- OutSystems does not aim to achieve Network Security and Physical Security for applications, as these levels of security are typically outside the scope of the application itself.
