Low-code development platforms open the way for greater independence and efficiency for business users. Unfortunately, they sometimes also open the way for attackers, as a result of poor low-code security practices, especially as low-code application security tries to catch up with traditional application security. Last year, Microsoft’s Detection and Response Team (DART) published the timeline of an attack which leveraged Power Platform, Microsoft's low-code platform.

Low-code application development provides a solution for a wide range of business needs, from business applications through process automation and integrations. Low-code platforms are becoming a key technology behind the ongoing digital transformation trend, and as such, adoption of low-code platforms is soaring. However, low-code is as much a revolution as it is an exciting new technology.
