Securing the Flow: Security and Privacy Tools for Flow-based Programming

ABSTRACT

This paper presents a comprehensive collection of reusable artifacts for addressing security and privacy issues in the context of flow-based programming in Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) environments. With the rapid adoption of FaaS platforms, it becomes important to guarantee the security and privacy of applications. The presented artifacts incorporate a wide variety of nodes and techniques into the popular Node-RED architecture. They intend to improve the security and privacy of applications by addressing critical aspects such as secure data flow management, code authenticity and validation, access control mechanisms, and runtime monitoring and anomaly detection. Using these artifacts, developers can construct more robust and resilient applications in FaaS environments while mitigating potential security and privacy risks.
