Security & Networking

In this course, you'll take a look at how Laravel protects your database and ways you can configure it to protect your system. The Laravel database access layer has a lot of built-in protection from common attacks. However, when you need to customize functionality it can be easy to undo that layer and allow for attacks like SQL injection. In this course, we’ll discuss how Laravel protects your database and look at ways to extend functionality without compromising security. Then, we’ll pivot to performance and reducing the chance of denial of service attacks. Finally, concentrating on a layered approach of security in your app, we’ll focus on the security of properties in an Eloquent model.
