Secure My Vibe Coded App

That login page? It's just decoration. Let's add real security.

The Vanity Security Problem

AI coding tools are great at making things look secure.

You've got a login page. Maybe even role-based navigation. Users see "Admin" or "Member" in the UI. But open DevTools, call the API directly, and you'll realize: none of it actually works.

The frontend checks if you're logged in. The backend doesn't. That's not security โ€” that's a suggestion.

Sound Familiar?

๐Ÿšช

Login Page Does Nothing

You have a beautiful login form, but the API endpoints don't check if users are authenticated.

๐Ÿ‘‘

Anyone Can Be Admin

Your admin dashboard checks roles on the frontend, but the backend accepts any request.

๐Ÿ’ง

Data Leaks Everywhere

Your API returns all user data, and you filter it in JavaScript. Attackers just call the API directly.

๐Ÿƒ

No Rate Limiting

Someone can brute force passwords or scrape your entire database because nothing stops them.

What I'll Implement

๐Ÿ”

Real Authentication

Every API endpoint verifies the user's session token. No token, no access. Period.

โœ…

Authorization Checks

Users can only access their own data. Admins are verified server-side, not client-side.

๐ŸŽฏ

Secure API Design

Endpoints only return data the user is allowed to see. No over-fetching, no data leaks.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Rate Limiting & Protection

Block brute force attempts, prevent abuse, and log suspicious activity.

๐Ÿงน

Input Validation

All user input is validated and sanitized server-side. No SQL injection, no XSS.

๐Ÿ“‹

Secure by Default

I'll set up patterns you can follow for new features so security doesn't slip again.

How It Works

1

Quick Audit

I look at your codebase and identify every unprotected endpoint and security gap.

2

Implement Fixes

I add proper auth checks, secure your API routes, and fix data access patterns.

3

Test & Verify

I test every endpoint to make sure unauthorized access is actually blocked.

4

Document Patterns

You get documentation so you can maintain security as you add new features.

Tech I Work With

Next.js API RoutesConvex BackendSupabase RLSClerk / Auth0 / NextAuthtRPCExpress / Fastify

Using something else? Let's talk โ€” I can probably help.

Before & After

โŒ Before

// API route - no protection
export async function GET() {
  const users = await db.users.findMany();
  return Response.json(users);
}

Anyone can fetch all users

โœ… After

// API route - properly secured
export async function GET(req) {
  const session = await getSession(req);
  if (!session?.user) {
    return Response.json(
      { error: "Unauthorized" }, 
      { status: 401 }
    );
  }
  // Only return user's own data
  const user = await db.users.findUnique({
    where: { id: session.user.id }
  });
  return Response.json(user);
}

Auth required, scoped data

Stop Playing Security Theater

Your users trust you with their data. Let's make sure that trust is deserved.
