💡 Prototype Pollution Attacks
Prototype pollution manipulates JavaScript object prototypes to inject properties that affect all objects in an application. This can lead to denial of service, property injection, and in some cases remote code execution in Node.js applications.
💡 Network Segmentation Benefits
Proper network segmentation limits the blast radius of breaches. Even if attackers compromise one segment, properly configured network boundaries prevent lateral movement to critical systems, databases, and administrative interfaces.
