Security Review
Basic approach:
● Identify potential product vulnerability
points at design time
● Put defenses in place to cover all
possible input paths
● Institute coding standards to control risk
from the beginning
Meet the security expectations of enterprise
customers
Incorporate security into your Application Lifecycle Management process

Secure Development:
● Test for the OWASP top 10
● Test for Record and Field Level Security Enforcement
○ http://sforce.co/1Y32v3k
● See full list of security considerations here: http://bit.ly/LC-Security
Security Review Submission:
● Security Review of paid components is $1000, no charge for free components
● Each listing (bundle or individual component) has the same price for Security Review
● Create a test environment with the component configured/accessible ready for the tester
● Third party frameworks are not supported in Lightning Components

One-Time Charge Annual Charge
Use one time pricing for components
that are limited in scope and do not
require significant maintenance over

Use annual pricing for more complex
components that will need to be supported
over time
Site-wide licensing is preferred

customers’ orgs
