How do I keep my vibe-coded app from getting hacked?

AI tools routinely ship apps with API keys in the frontend and database security (like Supabase Row Level Security) switched off; scans found roughly 1 in 10 vibe-coded apps leaking credentials. The fixes are boring and learnable: keep secrets out of client code, turn on RLS for every table, run your platform's built-in security scanner before launch, and never announce 'I built this with zero code' until you have. Real casualties (Enrichlead, Moltbook) show attackers actively hunt vibe-coded apps.
