How to Pass Salesforce Security Review: Tips for AppExchange Developers

Want to list your app on Salesforce AppExchange? You’ll need to pass their Security Review—and it’s no joke.

Top Tips from RevCodex:

  1. Avoid Hardcoded Secrets: Store credentials securely using Named Credentials or Custom Metadata.
  2. Enforce CRUD/FLS: Always respect user permissions in Apex.
  3. Use CSP and Locker Service Safely: LWC should be secure by design, but follow best practices.
  4. Don’t Store PII Unencrypted: Encrypt sensitive data if required.
  5. Run PMD & Checkmarx Scans: Use code scanners to catch issues early.

RevCodex helps ISVs build secure, review-ready apps fast. We’ve helped over 20+ clients sail through the process. Need guidance? We’re just one form away.
