SQL injection has consistently ranked as one of the top security threats in software development. Businesses have experienced massive data breaches and have even been forced to close as a result of security holes related to SQL injection.

Proactive solutions are key to preventing SQL injection and ensuring that hackers don't see your application as an easy target. We will demonstrate common mistakes that lead to SQL injection and a variety of ways which can safeguard our data against attacks.

While illustrating the ways in which hackers probe and attack our systems, we will show that SQL injection is not only the result of bad TSQL, but also bad code. By securing our data from the application and database tiers, we can greatly decrease their attractiveness to hackers and prevent attacks that could cripple a business permanently.
