Security Fundamentals

About

Security Fundamentals provides comprehensive guidance for building secure applications by integrating security into every stage of the development lifecycle. It covers the OWASP Top 10 prevention techniques, robust input validation using tools like Zod, secure authentication patterns, and secret management best practices. By offering practical code examples for preventing SQL injection, broken access control, and cryptographic failures, it ensures that security is a foundational requirement rather than an afterthought, helping developers maintain high-integrity code and secure production deployments.
