Mitigating LCNC (Low-Code/No-Code) Account Impersonation
This course provides learners with the knowledge and skills required to mitigate the risks associated with Low-code/No-code (LCNC) Account impersonation and is designed Software Developers, Vulnerability Assessment Analysts, and Systems Requirements Planners. The concepts discussed align with the OWASP Low-code/No-code Top 10 guidelines. Low-code/No-code applications can be embedded with a developer account which is then used implicitly by any application user. This practice creates a direct path towards privilege escalation, allows an attacker to hide behind another user‚s identity, and circumvents traditional security controls.
