💡 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.
💡 Log Correlation and SIEM Integration
Correlating logs across web servers, firewalls, DNS, and authentication systems reveals attack patterns invisible in individual log sources. Modern SIEM platforms use statistical analysis to connect related events across time and systems.
