This section could use some updates. Consider contributing!
Security is a broad topic. Unless you have considerable experience, a security background, or are applying for a position that requires knowledge of security, you probably won't need to know more than the basics:
- Encrypt in transit and at rest.
- Sanitize all user inputs or any input parameters exposed to user to prevent XSS and SQL injection.
- Use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection.
- Use the principle of least privilege.
