Mendix Capture the Flag: Why AI Makes App Security Non-Negotiable

17 Sep 2025

Description

Capture the Flag isn’t just a challenge; it’s a security wake-up call.Low-code lets you build fast, but without the right mindset, you can just as quickly create an unsafe app.That’s why Mendix Capture the Flag (CTF) has evolved into a global security movement with over 700 participants, satellite locations worldwide, and hands-on challenges that force every developer to think like a hacker before the hackers think of you.In my first-ever group episode of the Drag & Drop Podcast, I was joined by Jan de Vries, Community Manager at Mendix, René van Hofwegen from Low-Code Academy, Mitchel Mol, CTO of Blue Green Solutions, and Dirk van Veen, Founder of The S-Unit. Together, we explored why CTF is more than a competition; it’s how the Mendix ecosystem is building a security-first culture in the AI era.Key takeaways:🔘 Platform security vs. app security and why developers must own the second 🔘 How learning to hack makes you a stronger builder🔘 Insider tips for winning more flags🔘 Why even junior devs can (and should) join CTF🔘 How satellite locations strengthen global collaboration🔘 Why AI makes security awareness non-negotiableand much more....👉🏾Whether you’re a Mendix beginner or an enterprise leader, this conversation shows why security is everyone’s responsibility and why events like CTF accelerate both learning and community.Tell us what you loved about this Episode.Website: itracrecruitment.comContact: Feroz Khan THIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY ITRAC.
