Common Secure Coding Techniques
It’s no secret that web apps live in the cloud. These apps have complicated infrastructures hidden behind virtual private networks in the cloud, orchestrated by load balancers, spread amongst CDNs, and powered by multiple virtual machines. How on earth do you ensure all of that is secure?
One of the best ways to orchestrate deployment is through automation apps. Two of those applications commonly used by DevOps teams are Chef and Puppet. Both applications can build and deploy applications to a production environment using common configurations. This ensures that each push to production is configured without any mistakes.
Another tool is to use common libraries in your application's codebase. These libraries can be internally developed or can be sourced from outside repositories. Using Express.js in a Node.JS application is an excellent example of this. There’s no point in re-inventing the wheel when battle-tested, verified solutions are already available. The same is true for internal business functions that have been built over the years.
Version control software, like Git, is a great way for development teams to work together while minimizing mistakes. Tools like Git can also integrate those internal libraries among the development team.
