[ TOP_THREATS_2026 ]
Based on OWASP Top 10 2025 and CVSS scoring
| THREAT | DESCRIPTION | CVSS | LEVEL | SOURCE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SQL Injection | Database manipulation | 9.8 | OWASP 2025 | |
| XSS | Malicious code injection | 8.8 | OWASP 2025 | |
| CSRF | Unwanted actions | 7.5 | OWASP 2025 | |
| RCE | Remote Code Execution | 10.0 | MITRE |
[ WHY_SECURITY_MATTERS ]
In modern software development, security is not an afterthought. According to Verizon DBIR 2026, 86% of all companies are affected by security incidents. Average cost: $4.88 million (IBM 2026).
⚠️ [ COMMON_DEVELOPER_MISTAKES ]
- ✗ Missing input validation
- ✗ SQL injection via string concatenation
- ✗ XSS through unfiltered output
- ✗ Weak authentication without MFA
- ✗ Outdated dependencies with CVEs
[ OWASP_TOP_10_2025 ]
The OWASP Top 10 are the most important security risks for web applications:
- Broken Access Control - Insufficient access control
- Cryptographic Failures - Weak encryption
- Injection - SQL, NoSQL, Command Injection
- Insecure Design - Security vulnerabilities in design
- Security Misconfiguration - Misconfigurations
- Vulnerable Components - Vulnerable components
- Authentication Failures - Authentication failures
- Data Integrity Failures - Data integrity problems
- Logging Failures - Insufficient logging
- SSRF - Server-Side Request Forgery
[ BEST_PRACTICES ]
- ✓ Input Validation: Validate all inputs (whitelisting)
- ✓ Prepared Statements: Use parameterized queries
- ✓ HTTPS/TLS: Encrypt all connections (TLS 1.3)
- ✓ Security Headers: CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options
- ✓ Dependency Scanning: npm audit, Snyk, Dependabot
- ✓ MFA: Implement multi-factor authentication
