A system and method are provided to generate a secure integrated development environment (IDE). In one embodiment, a plurality of modules in a source code associated with a conventional IDE is detected. One or more modules of the plurality of modules that are to be modified are identified. One or more modifying components are identified and are to be associated with the one or more modules that are to be modified. A secure IDE is generated by updating the conventional IDE by modifying the one or more modules in the source code associated with the conventional IDE, wherein the one or more modules are modified by associating the one or more modifying components to the corresponding one or more modules.
