Is low-code safe and secure?

I was intrigued by an article I read the other day in CSO Online titled “4 security concerns for low-code and no-code development”. The premise of the article was, essentially, that enterprises must beware of low-code solutions, because they can cause security concerns.

In the article, author Chris Hughes says, “By allowing more people in an enterprise to develop applications, low-code development creates new vulnerabilities and can hide problems from security.”

I fundamentally disagree with this premise. Specifically, there is nothing inherently secure or insecure about low-code or no-code solutions.
