Broken access control in Express: the OWASP #1 risk, fixed with middleware
Broken access control now shows up in 100% of tested applications, per OWASP's 2025 Top 10 — up from 94% in 2021. Here's how to close it in Express.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

Fewer than 5% of published CVEs are ever exploited in the wild, yet most teams still triage by raw count — here's the exploitability-first alternative.
AWS secures the cloud; you secure what's in it. Most breaches — like the thousands of exposed public S3 buckets found every year — happen entirely on the customer's side of that line.
S3 buckets are private by default — every public leak is a customer misconfiguration. Capital One's 2019 breach of 106 million records proves the boundary.
AWS IAM lets any principal with iam:CreateRole and iam:AttachRolePolicy hand themselves admin — permissions boundaries are the one native control built to stop it.
Binary Authorization can block every unsigned container from reaching GKE or Cloud Run — but only if your pipeline is wired to sign images the moment they pass scanning.
A fail-the-build scanning pipeline is a few YAML lines away — but pin the Action wrong and you inherit its supply chain risk too.
CVE-2023-34362 sat in one internet-facing file-transfer server and still produced thousands of downstream breaches — attack surface mapping is what catches that server before Cl0p does.
Only 17% of organizations can inventory 95%+ of their assets, and 69% have been breached through one they didn't know existed — start with the map, not the scanner.
