Check who can reach your Base44 app, and what they can see.

Common failure modes

These turn up in fast-built apps whatever they were built with, once an app grows faster than anyone reviews it. Most can be fixed where the app is.

1. The platform, and the layer you own

   A flaw in the platform itself is the platform's to fix. What an app owner controls is the layer on top: the access settings, the data rules and the code the app runs. That layer is what an audit checks.

2. Apps open to anyone who signs up

   An internal tool or a customer portal left open to public sign-up gives every new account whatever a signed-in user can see.

3. Records any user can read

   Data rules that check only that someone is signed in, rather than which records are theirs, let one customer see another's.

4. Keys for other services

   Integrations with payment, email or AI services need their keys kept on the server side, never in code or settings the browser can read.

5. Changes made by prompt

   Each prompted change is new code. Without review, and a way to test the flows that matter, a fix in one place can open a gap in another.

   Veracode found that 45% of AI code-generation tasks introduced a vulnerability, and that security performance had 'remained unchanged over time' as models improved. Veracode, via BusinessWire

6. A business-critical tool with one way in

   When an internal tool becomes one the business depends on, it needs more than one owner account, an export of its data, and a plan for when something goes wrong.

What the audit checks on a Base44 app

The code and product audit reads the code, not only what is visible from outside, and ranks every finding by what it means for the business. On a Base44 app, that includes:

• The app's access settings: who can sign up, who can sign in, and what each role can see.
• Data rules for every kind of record, checked against who should see what.
• Integrations, and where their keys live.
• Backend functions, and what they trust from the browser.
• Ownership, exports and recovery: what happens if an account is lost or data is deleted.
• Your product and business goals, from an interview, so every finding is ranked by what it means for the business.

Production-ready where you are

The default recommendation is to make the app hold up on Base44. Moving off is recommended only when the audit shows it is worth the cost.
