Ever since its humble inception, JavaScript has gained a lot of traction in
the world of software development. What originally started as an experimental
language meant to increase responsiveness in the browser has evolved into a
full-fledged language with the capability to produce full-stack web
applications.
Applications are widely used, and new ways for easier and cost-effective
methods to develop them are constantly introduced. A common omission among
the new development and implementation techniques when designing them is
security; Node.js and NoSQL are no exception, various data-leaks over the
recent years have been attributed to people leaving MongoDB and other NoSQL
databases unsecured and accessible to anyone.
