How we did it

  1. Step 1
    Full Access Audit

    Audited actual data-access rules, not just the interface.

  2. Step 2
    Server-Enforced Shielding

    Replaced front-end-only masking with real server-side enforcement.

  3. Step 3
    Scoped Access Tokens

    Every sensitive route now requires a scoped, expiring token.

  4. Step 4
    3 Gaps Closed

    A shielding bypass, an open admin gap, and unauthenticated routes — all fixed.
