At which point should input validation occur in an application?
In general, it is best to perform input validation on both the client side and server side. Client-side input validation can help reduce server load and can prevent malicious users from submitting invalid data.
Is data input into applications validated?
Input validation (also known as data validation) is the proper testing of any input supplied by a user or application. Input validation prevents improperly formed data from entering an information system. Input validation can be carried out on client-side and server-side code to reinforce infrastructure security.
