SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Review and decide what should be public versus private in VTEX IO services to prevent cross-boundary leakage and unlabeled exposure of sensitive data.

Core Features & Use Cases

Establish explicit boundaries for VTEX IO routes, services, and integrations to prevent data leakage.
Guide validation and data handling at the boundary to enforce trust assumptions and proper access controls.
Use cases include hardening public endpoints, validating external inputs, and ensuring sensitive data stays within defined contexts.

Quick Start

Apply the boundary review to a VTEX IO app to decide what should be public or private and implement explicit validation and boundary controls.

FAQPage Schema

How do I prevent data leakage across VTEX IO service boundaries?▼

To prevent data leakage across VTEX IO service boundaries, you must explicitly define what is public versus private, enforce scoped access controls, validate external inputs, and return minimal response shapes to keep sensitive data within its intended context.

What is the best way to secure public and private routes in VTEX IO?▼

Securing public and private routes in VTEX IO requires establishing explicit boundaries for route exposure, applying strict access controls, and validating data handling at the boundary to prevent unlabeled exposure of sensitive information.

How do I validate external inputs and enforce trust assumptions in VTEX IO apps?▼

Validating external inputs in VTEX IO apps involves enforcing explicit validation at the service boundary, defining clear trust assumptions for cross-account and cross-workspace integrations, and ensuring scoped access controls align with hard security constraints.

When should I review boundary trust assumptions for VTEX IO cross-account integrations?▼

You should review boundary trust assumptions for VTEX IO cross-account integrations whenever establishing routes or handling data across accounts, workspaces, and external systems to ensure proper access controls and prevent cross-boundary leakage.

Does VTEX IO boundary security require explicit validation for all external service calls?▼

Yes, VTEX IO boundary security requires explicit validation for all external service calls to enforce trust assumptions, maintain minimal response shapes, and ensure that sensitive data stays within defined contexts across integrations.
