💡 DDoS Mitigation Approaches
Distributed denial of service attacks overwhelm infrastructure with traffic volume. Effective mitigation combines always-on traffic scrubbing, anycast network distribution, rate limiting, and the ability to quickly scale absorption capacity during attacks.
💡 Server-Side Template Injection
SSTI occurs when user input is embedded in server-side templates without sanitization. Successful exploitation often leads to remote code execution, as template engines typically have access to powerful server-side functionality.
