While Laravel is incredibly secure out of the box, developers often introduce vulnerabilities through improper configuration or flawed business logic. Here is how to lock down your app.
Preventing Mass Assignment
Always use the `$fillable` array on your Eloquent models. Never blindly pass `$request->all()` into a `create()` or `update()` method, as this allows malicious users to elevate their privileges.
Rate Limiting and Throttling
Protect your login and API routes using Laravel's built-in `RateLimiter`. This prevents brute-force attacks and safeguards your application from DDoS attempts.
