Input Validation: Validate input data by checking if it adheres to expected types, format, and length. Input validation can prevent various types of attacks, such as SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Buffer Overflows.
Whitelisting: Create a whitelist of acceptable input values, and validate the user's input against the whitelist. If the input doesn't match the whitelist, then it should be rejected.
Sanitization: Sanitize user input data by removing all dangerous characters and stripping any HTML or JavaScript tags.
Server-side Validation: Perform server-side validation to ensure that the data is in the correct format and that it doesn't contain any dangerous content that could be used to exploit vulnerabilities.
Parameterized Queries: Use parameterized queries when retrieving data from a database. This technique helps prevent SQL Injection attacks.
Authentication: Authenticate users to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data.
Authorization: Ensure that users have the appropriate permissions to access the data they are requesting.
Password Hashing: Hash passwords before storing them in a database. This ensures that passwords are not stored in plaintext, making them more difficult to retrieve if a data breach occurs.
Encryption: Encrypt sensitive data when storing it in a database or transmitting it over a network.
Error Handling: Implement proper error handling to provide feedback to users in case of input validation errors or other types of errors. This helps users to understand what went wrong and how to prevent the same mistake in the future.
