Traditional Attack Economics

Difficulty vs. Reward

Each attacker type targets organizations within their capability and interest zone

After Vibe Coding / Vibe Hacking

The Economics Have Shifted

AI-generated code creates vulnerabilities that shift startups into the high-value, low-effort zone for criminals

The Hacker's "Sales Funnel"

Automated Attack Pipeline

Hackers use AI agents and big data to automatically scan, probe, and qualify targets

Breaking the Funnel

Practical steps to stop attacks at each stage

๐Ÿ”

Lead Generation

Block: Hide from scanners with firewalls and rate limiting

Base44 Base44 managed infrastructure does this for you
๐Ÿค–

Initial Probe

Patch: Keep dependencies updated, remove unused services

Better prompting can prevent many vulnerabilities

๐ŸŽฏ

Qualification

Harden: Implement WAF, disable debug modes, validate all inputs

Base44 Base44 includes Cloudflare WAF protection
โšก

Exploitation

Detect: Enable logging, set up intrusion detection, monitor anomalies

Base44 Better prompting + Base44 analytics & logs view
๐Ÿ’ฐ

Monetization (STOPPED)

Respond: Incident response plan, backups, network segmentation

Break the chain anywhere to prevent monetization

Security Prompt

Find 3 security issues in my codebase. Look for: - SQL/NoSQL injection, XSS vulnerabilities - Authentication/authorization issues - Sensitive data exposure, input validation problems For each issue: explain the risk, then fix it.

What Tools, When?

A Tiered Approach to Security

Start where you are, grow as you need

When Does Security Become Paramount?

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Israel's Privacy Law (Amendment 13) Takes Effect August 2025

Storing User Data (PII)

Users can sue for NIS 100,000 eachโ€”without proving harm. One breach = class action.

Tier 2

Processing Payments

PCI-DSS compliance mandatory. Card brands can fine $5K-100K/mo + terminate processing.

Tier 2+

Health / Biometric / Location Data

"Sensitive data" under Amendment 13. Fines up to 5% of turnover. Criminal charges possible.

Tier 3

Enterprise / International Customers

They'll ask for SOC 2 before signing. EU customers = GDPR applies (Israel has adequacy status).

Tier 3

The PPA Can Now...

Publish your name as a violator for 4 years. Daily compounding fines. Suspend your database.

NEW

Small biz cap: NIS 140K/yr (~$38K) | Large orgs: up to 5% turnover

Think Like an Entrepreneur

Running through minefield

Every business runs through a minefield of risks.

The ones who understand and manage those risks don't just survive โ€” they win.

Security = Competitive Advantage
Build trust. Win enterprise deals. Sleep at night.

How Much Should You Invest?

A Simple Framework

$10,000

Recommended Investment

$300
per month
Suggested Tier: Tier 2
Avg Breach Cost: $165,000

Formula: 2-5% of revenue, adjusted for data sensitivity and customer type. Minimum $20/mo once you have users.
