The Most Common Web Application Security Threats

In an endless fight over records, malicious actors and security experts are in. While the former tries to snatch it, the latter is trying to safeguard it. Each year, innovative web application security threats are created by attackers to compromise sensitive data and access the database of their targets. As a result, security professionals draw on the vulnerabilities exploited and improve their frameworks through their learnings every year. The aggregate frequency and cost of data breaches seem to be growing exponentially. This cost is high (approx. US$8.64 million in the US in 2020 ) because of developers' inability to incorporate the latest changes and updates into their code to overcome already detected vulnerabilities. Unintuitively, 96% of web apps have some known defects and anomalies. Businesses should integrate security concerns in the development process of applications in order to ensure sufficient protection against web application security threats. Most developers, sad...

Want to learn about how to work with Nullable types in C#?

  In C# language, there are majorly two types of data types  Value  and  Reference  type. We can not assign a null value directly to the Value data type, therefore, C# 2.0 provides us the Nullable types to assign a value data type to null. What is Nullable types? As described above, the Nullable types used to assign the null value to the value data type. That means we can directly assign a null value to a value data type attribute. Using Nullable<T>, we can declare a null value where T is a type like int, float, bool, etc. Nullable types represent the Null value along with the actual range of that data type. Like the  int  data type can hold the value from -2147483648 to 2147483647 but a  Nullable int  can hold the value null and range from -2147483648 to 2147483647 How to declare Nullable types There are two ways to declare Nullable types. Nullable<int> example; OR int? Example; Properties of Nullable types Nullable types have tw...
