AI is at the heart of technology democratization. As AI tools become more accessible, individuals and organizations have begun to utilize AI copilots to build their own apps, automations and increase productivity in their jobs. This transformation has come to be known as the next evolution of low-code and no-code development. This development promises to accelerate innovation, enhance productivity, and solve complex problems more efficiently than ever before.

Empowering Citizen Developers: Using Zenity’s Tools in AI-Driven Development The ability to develop applications, automations, and bots without the need for custom coding, has resulted in a paradigm shift for cybersecurity. Now, more than ever, citizen developers can design and implement solutions without the need for a traditional coding background. Due to innovative tools and platforms, as well as the integration of AI, development is now faster, more accessible, and more efficient.

As we navigate through an era increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence, the theme of RSAC 2024, “The Art of the Possible,” couldn’t be more apt. This year, Zenity, a trailblazer in securing and governing business productivity tools like Copilot for M365, Power Platform, Salesforce, and ServiceNow, highlighted the vast possibilities—and the associated risks—of democratized technology and software development.

In the realm of modern enterprise productivity suites, Copilot for Microsoft 365 stands as a huge driver for efficiency, offering business users the ability to aggregate, summarize, and process data within the M365 suite of tools. However, for organizations with diverse infrastructure and applications, and the need for real-time data interactions, the out-of-the-box functionality requires augmentation to reach its full potential, not to mention secure controls for Copilot for M365.

Developing applications using low code platforms has gained popularity in recent years due to its ability to accelerate the software development process. However, with increased speed and efficiency comes the need for robust security measures to protect sensitive data and ensure a safe user experience. In this article, we will explore the best practices and strategies for enhancing low code application security.

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, the importance of low code security cannot be overstated. As organizations increasingly rely on low code development platforms to accelerate application and software development, it is crucial to understand the significance of robust security measures.

Technology can change in the blink of an eye, and nowhere is this more evident than in the rise of “citizen developers.” Often without formal technical training, these individuals leverage user-friendly platforms to create, innovate, and deploy AI-driven solutions. But with the support of intuitive interfaces, templates, and code snippets come challenges. Security can be a challenge hidden in the simplicity of drag-and-drop designs.

Low-code platforms have become a transformative force in the dynamic world of software development. They’ve democratized the designing, building, and deployment of software, which has had a ripple effect across entire industries. Today, with minimal coding expertise, users can craft innovative applications tailored to meet the needs of consumers and businesses alike. But the allure of low-code simplicity also creates a challenge.

Varonis researchers have recently disclosed that several government agencies and private-sector companies had customized or added features to their Salesforce Apex code that leaked data, allowed data corruption, or allowed an attacker to disrupt business functions. Impacted data included the usual suspects like phone numbers, addresses, social security numbers, and username/password combinations.

In a story that’s making rounds, Air Canada, Canada’s largest airline, is being ordered to pay a misled customer based on information they received from one of its chatbots.
