Auditing a Convex application for security involves checking authentication, function exposure, argument validation, row-level access control, and environment variable handling to enforce secure coding patterns and proper access controls.

Row-level access control in Convex ensures users can only access their own data and that admin actions are restricted. Security audits verify these ownership checks are in place to prevent unauthorized data access across your application's database operations.

Safely exposing Convex public functions requires a function exposure review to ensure public endpoints are secure and internal operations remain protected. The audit verifies correct use of internal functions to prevent unintended data access.

Yes, this security audit applies to both new and existing Convex projects during development, testing, and deployment. It verifies explicit validators, ownership checks, and safe environment variable management across any project stage.

Convex apps need explicit argument validators to enforce strict schemas that prevent invalid or malicious input. A security audit checks that argument and return value validation is correctly implemented to block unauthorized or malformed data.

Handling environment variables in Convex actions safely means confirming secrets are not hard-coded and are accessed securely. A security audit verifies that environment variable safeguards are followed to protect sensitive configuration data.
