I still don't know who Shiny is for... For very small organizations? You'd be a fool to run Shiny in a place over even just a couple hundred people... I've never seen any kind of seriousness around denial of service, pen testing, end to end data security, etc. If you're smart enough to be using Shiny to make something really great, you should also be smart enough to understand the risks of web applications. And I could also add with Shiny are you providing analysis or an illusion of an analysis platform with a risk of misinterpretation?

The best fit seems to be demoing work during a presentation or similar with it running locally... Where you can move some sliders and discuss some scenarios. Anything more than that and Shiny seems to promise you a turn key solution to weakly understood risks.
