Episode notes

malicious actors are people coming in your sight, and they're trying different things. So someone can submit a form over and over and over again or fill it with stolen credit card data. Or literally just run up your data base to the thing falls over. Someone could sign up with an email that isn't theirs. Uh, someone can abuse a resource that will cause strain on your server. And then let's talk about some of the solutions.

In this Hasty Treat, Scott and Wes talk about ways to prevent malicious people from using or abusing your app.
