8-item security checklist for indie devs shipping SaaS

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A developer compiled an eight-item security checklist after reviewing post-mortems of hacked indie SaaS launches. Each item includes a curl command to test, a plain-English explanation, and a fix in under ten lines of code. The checklist covers auth checks, BOLA/IDOR prevention, and other common vulnerabilities in Next.js and Supabase MVPs.

Meridian48 take
The checklist is practical and actionable, but indie devs should also consider broader security practices like dependency scanning and secrets management.
