Nearly broke our SaaS trying to improve security — here is what we learned

We just completed a full security upgrade for our SaaS platform 🎉

The journey wasn’t easy. Damn, I suffered such much along the way! We broken builds, lockfile chaos, and dependency nightmares... but we came out stronger:

– Automated lockfile refresh in CI/CD

– OSV vulnerability scanning

– Clearer security messaging for users

– A smoother merge process to keep shipping fast

Why share this? Because building a SaaS is hard enough, and security can feel overwhelming. We learned a lot, and we’re sharing our approach to help other builders stay focused on growth without sacrificing trust.
