Database design & security

Organize and protect your app’s data

Data that is well organized, protected, and ready to grow with the application.

Is this for you?

A database set up for a prototype often lets anyone with the app’s key read more than they should, or holds data in a shape that gets harder to change with every feature. Both are easier to fix early.

For example:

  • Supabase or Firebase rules that may expose more than intended
  • A database that gets harder to change with every feature
  • Backups that have never been tested

What Blue Pixel delivers

  • A review of what is stored, where, and who can read it
  • Access rules checked, including row-level security in Supabase and Postgres
  • Data organized so new features do not mean painful changes
  • Migrations that change the database safely, step by step
  • Backups, and a tested way to restore them
  • Personal data handled with privacy obligations in mind

How the work goes

  1. Review

    Blue Pixel maps the data, its access rules, and how the application uses it.

  2. Plan

    Changes ordered so the app keeps working while they are made.

  3. Change and verify

    Migrations applied and tested, with access rules confirmed afterwards.

What helps scope the work

It helps to know:

  • How much data there is and how many tables or collections
  • Whether the database is shared with other applications
  • Personal or regulated data, and the obligations that come with it

Questions

Can you check my Supabase or Firebase security rules?

Yes. Access rules are one of the most common gaps in apps built quickly, and checking them is a good first step.

Can you erase a person’s data on request?

Erasure can be designed in, even for systems that keep a permanent history. See the related pattern below.
