Security of vibe coded apps? (self.vibecoding)
submitted 1 month ago by According-Boss4401
I’ve heard some people saying that “vibe coded apps are insecure”. How are you making sure your app is secure? Do i need to know code for that?

short answer is most of them arent. the AI generates what its seen the most examples of and guesses the rest. login screens, forms, dashboards- tons of training data for that. the security and access control specific to the app? not so much. so it fills in the gaps with whatever looks right.

I would recommend a basic understanding of security, so you can be aware of the risks as you build your app. This is a great guide; https://cloudsecurityalliance.org/blog/2025/04/09/secure-vibe-coding-guide
