Application Security Overview

OutSystems is committed to continuous improvement of the security of the applications generated by our platform. As part of this effort, we provide the capabilities to address all of the vulnerabilities identified by the Open Web Application Security Project® (OWASP) as the most critical security risks to web and mobile applications.

This paper describes how to achieve the highest level of security for your OutSystems applications by ensuring that the developed applications are secure, that they run on a secure runtime environment, and that the generated applications are granted a default level of protection against common web and mobile application vulnerabilities.

In addition, guidance is also provided about how to develop secure applications that run on a secure environment, and a set of post-development mechanisms that you can use to perform security checks on the built applications before going to production.
