Security
Whenever you store a new snippet in a folder accessed by the Code Snippets Manager, you are responsible for ensuring that its code is constructed securely as the rest of your application. Because using code snippets saves development time, snippets can frequently be reused as you design applications. You should, therefore, make sure that the model code saved in snippets is designed to address security issues. Development teams should establish procedures to review code snippets for compliance with general security standards.
