What problem does it solve?

This audit provides a structured, repeatable security checklist to identify and remediate vulnerabilities in a NestJS-based backend API, focusing on authentication, input validation, secret management, dependencies, and Docker hardening.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Authentication & Authorization Audit: verify that all endpoints enforce proper identity checks and access control.
  • Input Validation & Data Sanitization: ensure DTOs use validation decorators and global pipes are configured to prevent invalid data.
  • Secret Management & Configuration: detect hardcoded secrets and ensure environment-based configuration with encrypted storage where needed.
  • Dependency & Docker Security: review dependencies for known vulnerabilities and ensure secure container configurations.
  • Use Case: run this audit before releases, after adding new endpoints, or during PR reviews to prevent security regressions.

Quick Start

Run the secure-api-guard audit against the backend to produce a prioritized remediation plan.
