Defending Node Applications from SQL Injection, XSS, & CSRF Attacks
Offered By: Codecademy
Course Description
Overview
Protect Node.js Applications from SQL Injection, CSRF, & XSS Attacks.
### Why Learn to Prevent SQL Injection, XSS, & CSRF Attacks in Your Express Applications?
Web applications are constantly under threat. From malicious threat actors to curious teenagers, malicious code or hacking attempts are coming from every angle. Using the OWASP Top 10’s list of the most critical security risks to web applications as a guide, you can protect your users, and yourself, from threats to your Node.js applications.
### Take-Away Skills
By completing this course, you will have learned how to start protecting your Node.js web application from SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Attacks. You will also learn safer JavaScript coding practices as well as the basics of Remediation and Incident Response. After completing this course, you will know how to make your Node.js and Express applications safer from malicious actors.
