Enhancing Security Audit Prompts in Landing Project

The devlog-ist/landing project focuses on creating effective landing pages. Recent work improves the security of these pages.

To minimize false positives during security audits, the placeholder pattern examples used by LLMs have been expanded. Initially, the LLM prompt only included "your-api-key" as a placeholder example. This resulted in flagging SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE patterns like YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN, which are commonly found in documentation and tutorials.

By broadening the example set, the audit tool can now better differentiate between genuine API keys and common placeholder patterns, leading to more accurate and relevant security alerts. This reduces noise and allows developers to focus on real vulnerabilities.

This improvement helps ensure the security audit process is more precise and efficient, ultimately contributing to more secure landing pages. Check the full article for more details.
