Question
How do I address security concerns about global access for Lightning applications?
Answer
To address security concerns about global access for Lightning applications: 1. **Restrict Access**: Set the access value of Aura components to either `Private` or `Public` within the namespace to limit unnecessary exposure. 2. **Avoid DML in `init` Functions**: Do not use the `init` function in Aura components for operations involving DML (Data Manipulation Language). 3. **Follow Secure Coding Practices**: Adhere to Lightning best practices and secure coding guidelines to ensure compliance and reduce vulnerabilities. These steps help minimize risks and secure your Lightning applications effectively.
