How We Prevent SQL Injection
We design the system so that anything you type is treated as harmless data, not as instructions to the database. Here are the safeguards working for you:
- Safe database access: We use placeholders ("parameters") so your input never becomes a command.
- Approved search and sort options: Only known, whitelisted choices are allowed; unexpected values are ignored or sanitized.
- Server-built queries: Flexible queries are assembled from validated pieces on the server, not directly from user-entered text.
- Modern frameworks: Our data access frameworks automatically send your input separately from the SQL instructions.
- Safe error handling: Error messages avoid exposing details about the database or internal systems.
- Ongoing protection: We regularly review, test, and improve these safeguards to keep them effective.
What this means for you: special characters (like quotes or symbols) won’t turn into harmful commands, and your actions are processed safely without requiring you to do anything special.
