How to Avoid Common Security Mistakes in .NET
A guide on avoiding Common Security pitfalls in simple words
Hey there! Let’s talk about keeping your .NET apps safe from those online bullies trying to mess with your stuff. You don’t need to be a tech wizard to follow along. I’ll keep it simple, promise.
Stay Updated
First things first, always make sure your .NET and any other software you’re using are up to date. It’s like making sure your phone’s operating system is current so you get all the latest features and security fixes.
This helps block out the bad guys looking for old flaws to exploit.
Check Inputs
When your app asks for information, don’t just take it at face value. Check it over. If you’re asking for an email, make sure it looks like an email. This helps keep out harmful stuff that could mess with your app.
Be Careful Who You Let In
Not everyone should get to see everything in your app.
Just like you wouldn’t give your house keys to just anyone, don’t let just any user access sensitive parts of your app. Set up some checks to make sure only the right people can see the right things.
