Vision on Mendix security

We believe you can only build secure Mendix applications when you understand how they are attacked. That’s why we teach developers to think like a hacker and make security a mindset.

Mendix security expertise

With more than ten years of experience, specialized Mendix experts, and hundreds of tested Mendix applications, we know the platform inside out. As the official in-house pentester for Mendix, we understand the attack patterns, pitfalls, and limits of the platform. We bundle this knowledge in The S-Unit Top 10 and share it with you, so you can build with security by design.

Are you ready for the highest level of security?

Don’t wait for a pentest or audit to reveal what you could have prevented. Sign up for the Mendix Summer Bootcamp.

Overview of the three-day training program

Mendix Security FundamentalsMendix Security AdvancedMendix Security Expert

Day 1: Mendix Security Fundamentals

You start with the three most common and critical vulnerabilities from The S-Unit Top 10. These are the vulnerabilities we encounter most often during Mendix pentests. You will learn how to systematically assess whether a Mendix application is secure and how, as a Mendix developer, to perform the basic development tasks securely.

Day 2: Mendix Security Advanced

On day two, you dive into more complex vulnerabilities from The S-Unit Top 10. Think of tricky situations involving insecure entity access and microflows. You will discover what can go wrong when publishing or consuming integrations and how to recognize and prevent UI vulnerabilities. You work with realistic scenarios, allowing you to immediately translate theory into practice.
