Building a fintech app with AWS? Let us review it.
Expert code review for fintech apps built with AWS. We fix AWS-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common AWS issues we find
Real problems from AWS codebases we've reviewed.
Overly permissive IAM policies
AI-generated IAM policies using Action: '*' and Resource: '*' — granting full access to every AWS service. This is the cloud equivalent of leaving all your doors unlocked.
Public S3 buckets
S3 buckets configured with public access for convenience during development. User uploads, database backups, and configuration files become accessible to anyone on the internet.
Unencrypted data at rest
Databases (RDS, DynamoDB), S3 buckets, and EBS volumes without encryption enabled. If a backup is exposed, all your data is readable.
Security groups wide open
EC2 security groups allowing inbound traffic from 0.0.0.0/0 on all ports instead of restricting to specific ports and IP ranges.
Fintech App challenges to solve
Key fintech app concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Data encryption and storage
Financial data must be encrypted at rest and in transit. Account numbers, transaction histories, and personally identifiable financial information need field-level encryption, not just HTTPS. AI tools store financial data in plain text in the database, which is a compliance violation waiting to happen.
Transaction integrity
Financial transactions must be atomic — money debited from one account must be credited to another, with no in-between state where it disappears. AI-generated code doesn't use database transactions, meaning a server crash mid-operation can leave accounts in an inconsistent state.
Audit trail and compliance
Every financial action needs an immutable log — who initiated it, when, what changed, and what the balances were before and after. Regulators require this. AI tools don't generate audit logging, and retrofitting it into an existing codebase is tedious but essential.
Third-party financial API integration
Connecting to Plaid, Stripe, or banking APIs requires handling OAuth flows, webhook verification, idempotency keys, and retry logic for failed calls. AI tools generate the initial API call but miss the error handling and reliability patterns these services require.
What we check
Key areas we review for AWS fintech app projects.
Data encryption — field-level encryption for sensitive financial data
Transaction integrity — atomic operations, no partial state changes
Audit logging — immutable records of every financial action
Authentication — MFA, session management, account lockout policies
Not sure if your app passes? Our code audit ($19) checks all of these and more.

Frequently asked questions
Can you review a fintech app built with AWS?
Yes. We regularly audit AWS fintech app projects and understand the specific patterns and pitfalls of this combination. Our review covers security, performance, and deployment readiness.
What issues do you find in AWS fintech apps?
Common issues include overly permissive iam policies and public s3 buckets on the AWS side, combined with fintech app-specific concerns like data encryption and storage and transaction integrity. We check for all of these and more.
How do I make my AWS fintech app production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of issues. For AWS fintech app projects, the typical path is: fix security gaps, address fintech app-specific requirements, optimize AWS performance, then configure deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
