Infrastructure for your Express project
Expert infrastructure for Express applications. We find and fix Express-specific deployment and security issues that affect production apps. From $19.
Express infrastructure issues we find
Common infrastructure problems specific to Express applications.
No helmet middleware for security headers
Express apps without the helmet middleware are missing critical security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and HSTS, leaving the app vulnerable to common web attacks.
Missing input validation and sanitization
Request body, query params, and URL params used directly without validation. No express-validator, zod, or joi — enabling injection attacks and unexpected crashes.
CORS set to allow all origins
The cors() middleware called with no options, defaulting to allowing requests from any website — a security risk for APIs that handle user data.
No request size limits
express.json() without a size limit allows attackers to send massive payloads that consume all server memory and crash the process.
Secrets hardcoded in source files
Database URIs, API keys, and JWT secrets written directly in the code instead of loaded from environment variables. They end up in Git history.
No graceful shutdown handling
The Express process is killed on deployment without draining active connections or finishing in-flight requests, causing errors for connected users.
What our Express infrastructure covers
Database setup
Choosing the right database (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.), schema design, migrations, and connection management.
Authentication system
Email/password, OAuth (Google, GitHub), magic links, session management, and role-based access control.
API design
REST or GraphQL API structure, input validation, error handling, and documentation.
Email integration
Transactional emails (signup, password reset, notifications) with Resend, SendGrid, or Postmark.
File storage
Image uploads, document storage, CDN delivery with S3, Cloudflare R2, or Supabase Storage.
Third-party integrations
Stripe payments, webhook handling, external API connections, and service orchestration.
