-**Application Security** is the process of developing, adding, and testing security features within applications to prevent security vulnerabilities against threats such as unauthorized access and modification.

-Application Security describes security measures at the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:application|application]] level that aim to prevent data or code within the app from being stolen or hijacked. It encompasses the security considerations that happen during application development and design, but it also involves systems and approaches to protect apps after they get deployed.
