#what is trigger in sql

[prettyboykatsuki]

► TAGGING SYSTEM

FOR MOST TYPES OF POST THE TAG FORMAT WILL BE SELECT ___; (semicolon included)

ex, SELECT music; or SELECT ships; or SELECT selfships.

>> for the most part i will only tag original posts this way. if im reblogging something the tags will be straightforward. so art will be tagged as #art and fandom without fuss.

ex. #art, #jjk etc.

>> i use a bastardized version of SQL to tag my posts bc it's easy for me to remember and generally uncomplicated to filter (from what ive tested at least)

FOR TRIGGER TAGGING:

anything that discusses something at depth will be tagged with ___ cw

ex. incest cw, grooming cw.

anything that is mostly joking or describes something in less than a sentence will be tagged. ___ mention

ex. incest mention, noncon mention.

FOR FANDOM TAGGING:

ALL ENCOMPASSING WRITING TAG IS THE SAME:

# writing tag.

FICS WILL BE DIVIDED BY.

# WHERE ___ -> length.

# where small; for anything under 1k, # where medium for anything 1-4k #where long for anything 4k+

# SELECT * FROM ___ -> general fandom tag.

# WHERE CHARACTER; -> general character (or ship name)

# WHERE CHARACTER1 AND CHARACTER 2; -> character pair tag.

# WHERE MULTI; -> multi character posts.

# FROM ___ -> my fic tag / tag for fic specific asks etc.

# SELECT meta; -> meta / commentary

# SELECT general; - ask tag for general asks (unrelated to fandom), general posts / catch-all

# SELECT SILLY general; -> funnies tag / hoarding tag for funny asks.

# SELECT MAX(LOVE); -> favorites tag.

# SELECT recs; -> recommendation tag.

# SELECT MIN(BS); ->discourse tag

# UNIQUE(PRAISE); -> hall of fame tag.

# UNIQUE(KEEP); -> posts i want to refer back to.

# ZERO. TXT -> general talking / inquiry tag.

HEY i read your rambles on the authority skilltober drawing and i just wanna say that id love to read your thoughts on authority and volition's dynamic!! if you want to share them obviously lmao

hi anon!!! you sent this in 6 weeks ago, I am so sorry :( hopefully you still see this

I am! extremely excited to dump about these two!! just needed to have the time/energy to and then it took forever hgkjh

it's gonna be long so putting a break here :) but there are quote screenshots *and* doodles under the cut

first off, a bunch of this stuff is in this post about them, this Volition skilltober post, and this Authority skilltober post, but now it's all together. so if you've seen some of this commentary or screenshots before... that's why

so ... going to sort this into canon and headcanons.

CANON:

we get: all volition and authority interactions I can find!

them agreeing:

them disagreeing:

this ones not really agreeing or disagreeing ig:

this one, the authority passive only fires if volition's doesn't. they're covering for eachotherrr.

I ran a very complicated SQL query to find all the instances of them having dialogue right after another, but it doesn't account for when the dialogue is separated by a variable check (eg. the sorry cop dialogue needs to check if you have the sorry cop thought). so I did what anyone would do and spent 3 hours making a far more convoluted query to iterate through the variable chains until they reached another line of dialogue. Which for some reason was a lot more easy in theory than in execution. And every time I messed it up it would sit for like 15 minutes and then bomb my computer with 10 million rows of dialogue. And sure, maybe twice I accidentally made it trace through every single dialogue path possible in the game recursively which. required killing it because it blew up. but it eventually WORKED and that's what matters.

So these quotes! Basically. They agree on stuff plenty, backing eachother up against bad ideas presented by Harry, other skills, or other people. but they also bicker a lot, trying to shut down eachother's ideas. Volition is the voice of reason in a lot of these, mostly just his desire not to die out of sheer willpower, as well as shutting down a few of Authority's more impulsive suggestions. But there is one where Volition disagrees with Authority, telling you to keep pushing on the stickbug issue despite the fact that he's only doing it to be stubborn and is actively making the situation worse... I think Authority helps balance against the extreme stubbornness Volition sometimes takes too far.

Here are a couple of them referring to eachother's specialties...

Authority is also extremely anti narcotics and encourages you to do the right thing (like declining Evrart's bribe) which I'm sure Volition would be happy with, until Authority takes it too far and encourages you to drink and smoke more because it's better than narcotics, and starts encouraging you to basically fabricate situations where you can pretend to be honourable for karma coupons. Which. Sigh.

That's them! They're on the same page and everything is going great right up until it's not.

Also Authority triggers the only instance of healing *all* morale damage in the whole game... :)

Of note is also when Volition *doesn't* chime in. Volition is well aware of the gun idea during the Hardies fail, even before you are, and makes no move to stop it. (Also, the back and forth during that fail when Volition tells you to give the gun back is. hgkh. I can't think of any other instance of Volition trying to override some bad decision and the skill in question talking/fighting back. If it does happen, it must be pretty rare.) He also doesn't stop you during the Authority fail dancing in the church, just urges you to go apologize after the damage is done (despite stopping you from making a racist comment during an encyclopedia fail a different time).

They also do take over for eachother from time to time! Especially with Kim asserting his authority, both of them do it several times. Authority obviously has the eyebrow standoff, but the check to not wipe coal off your face is an Authority check. The check to refuse to drink water after you faint is Volition, as well as Volition will allow you to tell Kim you don't need to be supervised.

HEADCANONS:

YES behold. my headcanons about them.

skill parents... the two of them are the ones all the other skills go to if they need help, or to break up a fight, or to hide from if they're being irresponsible

one sided rivalry!! volition just wants to keep everything together and authority took that personally. he's far more invested in asserting himself over volition than the other way around -- volition just wants authority to listen to him. we've got volition at 10 skill points and authority at 8, and authority is cooperative right up until Harry takes too much morale damage and volition's points dip below authority's, and then all bets are off.

ouh I love these two. when they get along, they work together wonderfully and do a great job running the ship together. and when they don't it turns into a mess! :) they absolutely fight over who has to (or gets to, depending) resolve an issue when something comes up while they're fighting. or will defer to the other one if they're separate (go talk to authority > go ask volition loop)

Authority is like this absolute force of nature that can't stand being told no, or anything or anyone getting in his way, and will use intimidation or force or whatever he has to to get his way. And Volition is this wall of willpower that will completely dig his heels in at the first sign of anyone trying to force him to do something he doesn't want to do, and continue to be unrelentingly stubborn about it until the bitter end. Unstoppable force vs immovable object. Authority's desire to control everything is only matched by Volition's desire for control over himself. Like I am not convinced Volition would be able to put self preservation above his stubbornness. And it's this eternal standoff until something (either of their skill points dropping/raising) changes the playing field. They're awful for each other sometimes but they're the only ones who can balance each other out a bit. I'm so normal about them.

I will say with regards to my morale critical volition, which I have many thoughts about constantly... that authority is so much more attuned to volition's strength relative to his own that he often realizes way before the others that morale is getting low. :) may make some mini comics about them because writing is much more fickle... and I like drawing them.

okay... that's far more than anyone could have possibly wanted about these two idiots, I think. hope u enjoyed anon, ty for asking about them!!!

How to Optimize ETL Pipelines for Performance and Scalability

As data continues to grow in volume, velocity, and variety, the importance of optimizing your ETL pipeline for performance and scalability cannot be overstated. An ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipeline is the backbone of any modern data architecture, responsible for moving and transforming raw data into valuable insights. However, without proper optimization, even a well-designed ETL pipeline can become a bottleneck, leading to slow processing, increased costs, and data inconsistencies.

Whether you're building your first pipeline or scaling existing workflows, this guide will walk you through the key strategies to improve the performance and scalability of your ETL pipeline.

1. Design with Modularity in Mind

The first step toward a scalable ETL pipeline is designing it with modular components. Break down your pipeline into independent stages — extraction, transformation, and loading — each responsible for a distinct task. Modular architecture allows for easier debugging, scaling individual components, and replacing specific stages without affecting the entire workflow.

For example:

Keep extraction scripts isolated from transformation logic

Use separate environments or containers for each stage

Implement well-defined interfaces for data flow between stages

2. Use Incremental Loads Over Full Loads

One of the biggest performance drains in ETL processes is loading the entire dataset every time. Instead, use incremental loads — only extract and process new or updated records since the last run. This reduces data volume, speeds up processing, and decreases strain on source systems.

Techniques to implement incremental loads include:

Using timestamps or change data capture (CDC)

Maintaining checkpoints or watermark tables

Leveraging database triggers or logs for change tracking

3. Leverage Parallel Processing

Modern data tools and cloud platforms support parallel processing, where multiple operations are executed simultaneously. By breaking large datasets into smaller chunks and processing them in parallel threads or workers, you can significantly reduce ETL run times.

Best practices for parallelism:

Partition data by time, geography, or IDs

Use multiprocessing in Python or distributed systems like Apache Spark

Optimize resource allocation in cloud-based ETL services

4. Push Down Processing to the Source System

Whenever possible, push computation to the database or source system rather than pulling data into your ETL tool for processing. Databases are optimized for query execution and can filter, sort, and aggregate data more efficiently.

Examples include:

Using SQL queries for filtering data before extraction

Aggregating large datasets within the database

Using stored procedures to perform heavy transformations

This minimizes data movement and improves pipeline efficiency.

5. Monitor, Log, and Profile Your ETL Pipeline

Optimization is not a one-time activity — it's an ongoing process. Use monitoring tools to track pipeline performance, identify bottlenecks, and collect error logs.

What to monitor:

Data throughput (rows/records per second)

CPU and memory usage

Job duration and frequency of failures

Time spent at each ETL stage

Popular tools include Apache Airflow for orchestration, Prometheus for metrics, and custom dashboards built on Grafana or Kibana.

6. Use Scalable Storage and Compute Resources

Cloud-native ETL tools like AWS Glue, Google Dataflow, and Azure Data Factory offer auto-scaling capabilities that adjust resources based on workload. Leveraging these platforms ensures you’re only using (and paying for) what you need.

Additionally:

Store intermediate files in cloud storage (e.g., Amazon S3)

Use distributed compute engines like Spark or Dask

Separate compute and storage to scale each independently

Conclusion

A fast, reliable, and scalable ETL pipeline is crucial to building robust data infrastructure in 2025 and beyond. By designing modular systems, embracing incremental and parallel processing, offloading tasks to the database, and continuously monitoring performance, data teams can optimize their pipelines for both current and future needs.

In the era of big data and real-time analytics, even small performance improvements in your ETL workflow can lead to major gains in efficiency and insight delivery. Start optimizing today to unlock the full potential of your data pipeline.

How to Assess Oracle EBS Customizations Before Cloud Migration

Migrating from Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) to Oracle Cloud Applications (Fusion) isn’t just a technical upgrade—it’s a transformation. One of the most critical and often underestimated parts of this journey is assessing customizations. Over the years, organizations have tailored their EBS environments with custom reports, workflows, forms, and extensions to meet specific business needs. But not everything needs to move to the cloud. Some customizations become obsolete, while others can now be addressed with built-in cloud functionality.

This blog outlines a practical approach to assessing your EBS customizations before migrating to Oracle Cloud, helping you reduce technical debt, streamline operations, and align with modern best practices.

1. Identify All Existing Customizations

Before deciding what to migrate, you need a full inventory of what’s customized in your EBS environment. This includes:

Custom Forms (FMBs)

Custom Reports (RDFs, BI Publisher, Discoverer)

Workflows and Alerts

PL/SQL packages, procedures, triggers

Custom menus, responsibilities, and profiles

Third-party integrations

Use tools like Oracle Application Object Library (AOL) tables, custom code repositories, or Oracle-provided utilities (like Customization Analyzer or EBS Upgrade Companion) to extract and document this data.

2. Classify and Categorize the Customizations

Once identified, classify the customizations into categories such as:

Mandatory (business-critical)

Nice to have

Obsolete or redundant

Replaced by standard cloud functionality

This helps stakeholders prioritize what needs to be rebuilt, replaced, or retired.

3. Evaluate Business Relevance in the Cloud Context

Many EBS customizations were created due to gaps in standard functionality. But Oracle Cloud Applications are built with industry best practices, modern capabilities, and built-in analytics. Before deciding to rebuild a customization:

Ask why it was created

Check if similar functionality is now standard in Oracle Cloud

Consider whether adapting business processes to the cloud's standard flow is a better option

This approach reduces custom development and long-term maintenance efforts.

4. Map Customizations to Cloud Equivalents

For viable customizations, determine how they can be translated in the cloud: EBS CustomizationOracle Cloud EquivalentForms (FMBs)Visual Builder Apps, Page Composer, App ComposerPL/SQL CodeGroovy Scripts, REST APIs, Cloud FunctionsWorkflowsBPM Workflows, Approval RulesReports (RDF)BI Publisher, OTBI, Fusion Analytics

Understanding these mappings helps scope the effort required and guides design decisions in the cloud environment.

5. Document, Rationalize, and Get Stakeholder Buy-in

Create a detailed Customization Assessment Register that includes:

Custom object name

Purpose

Business owner

Migration decision (Migrate, Replace, Retire)

Notes on implementation approach

Review it with stakeholders and functional leads to ensure alignment before proceeding with design or development in the cloud.

Conclusion

Assessing Oracle EBS customizations is a vital early step in your cloud migration journey. It ensures you're not just copying legacy complexity into a modern platform. By identifying, classifying, and evaluating your customizations thoughtfully, you can take full advantage of Oracle Cloud’s built-in capabilities, reduce future maintenance, and create a cleaner, more agile system.

Start early, collaborate with your business users, and think cloud-first—your future self will thank you.

Combining Azure Data Factory with Azure Event Grid for Event-Driven Workflows

Traditional data pipelines often run on schedules — every 15 minutes, every hour, etc. But in a real-time world, that isn’t always enough. When latency matters, event-driven architectures offer a more agile solution.

Enter Azure Data Factory (ADF) + Azure Event Grid — a powerful duo for building event-driven data workflows that react to file uploads, service messages, or data changes instantly.

Let’s explore how to combine them to build more responsive, efficient, and scalable pipelines.

⚡ What is Azure Event Grid?

Azure Event Grid is a fully managed event routing service that enables your applications to react to events in near real-time. It supports:

Multiple event sources: Azure Blob Storage, Event Hubs, IoT Hub, custom apps

Multiple event handlers: Azure Functions, Logic Apps, WebHooks, and yes — Azure Data Factory

🎯 Why Use Event Grid with Azure Data Factory?

BenefitDescription🕒 Real-Time TriggersTrigger ADF pipelines the moment a file lands in Blob Storage — no polling needed🔗 Decoupled ArchitectureKeep data producers and consumers independent⚙️ Flexible RoutingRoute events to different pipelines, services, or queues based on metadata💰 Cost-EffectivePay only for events received — no need for frequent pipeline polling

🧱 Core Architecture Pattern

Here’s how the integration typically looks:pgsqlData Source (e.g., file uploaded to Blob Storage) ↓ Event Grid ↓ ADF Webhook Trigger (via Logic App or Azure Function) ↓ ADF Pipeline runs to ingest/transform data

🛠 Step-by-Step: Setting Up Event-Driven Pipelines

✅ 1. Enable Event Grid on Blob Storage

Go to your Blob Storage account

Navigate to Events > + Event Subscription

Select Event Type: Blob Created

Choose the endpoint — typically a Logic App, Azure Function, or Webhook

✅ 2. Create a Logic App to Trigger ADF Pipeline

Use Logic Apps if you want simple, no-code integration:

Use the “When a resource event occurs” Event Grid trigger

Add an action: “Create Pipeline Run (Azure Data Factory)”

Pass required parameters (e.g., file name, path) from the event payload

🔁 You can pass the blob path into a dynamic dataset in ADF for ingestion or transformation.

✅ 3. (Optional) Add Routing Logic

Use conditional steps in Logic Apps or Functions to:

Trigger different pipelines based on file type

Filter based on folder path, metadata, or event source

📘 Use Case Examples

📁 1. File Drop in Data Lake

Event Grid listens to Blob Created

Logic App triggers ADF pipeline to process the new file

🧾 2. New Invoice Arrives via API

Custom app emits event to Event Grid

Azure Function triggers ADF pipeline to pull invoice data into SQL

📈 3. Stream Processing with Event Hubs

Event Grid routes Event Hub messages to ADF or Logic Apps

Aggregated results land in Azure Synapse

🔐 Security and Best Practices

Use Managed Identity for authentication between Logic Apps and ADF

Use Event Grid filtering to avoid noisy triggers

Add dead-lettering to Event Grid for failed deliveries

Monitor Logic App + ADF pipeline failures with Azure Monitor Alerts

🧠 Wrapping Up

Event-driven architectures are key for responsive data systems. By combining Azure Event Grid with Azure Data Factory, you unlock the ability to trigger pipelines instantly based on real-world events — reducing latency, decoupling your system, and improving efficiency.

Whether you’re reacting to file uploads, streaming messages, or custom app signals, this integration gives your pipelines the agility they need.

Real-time Data Processing with Azure Stream Analytics 

Introduction 

The current fast-paced digital revolution demands organizations to handle occurrences in real-time. The processing of real-time data enables organizations to detect malicious financial activities and supervise sensor measurements and webpage user activities which enables quicker and more intelligent business choices.  

Microsoft’s real-time analytics service Azure Stream Analytics operates specifically to analyze streaming data at high speed. The introduction explains Azure Stream Analytics system architecture together with its key features and shows how users can construct effortless real-time data pipelines. 

What is Azure Stream Analytics? 

Algorithmic real-time data-streaming functions exist as a complete serverless automation through Azure Stream Analytics. The system allows organizations to consume data from different platforms which they process and present visual data through straightforward SQL query protocols.  

An Azure data service connector enables ASA to function as an intermediary which processes and connects streaming data to emerging dashboards as well as alarms and storage destinations. ASA facilitates processing speed and immediate response times to handle millions of IoT device messages as well as application transaction monitoring. 

Core Components of Azure Stream Analytics 

A Stream Analytics job typically involves three major components: 

1. Input 

Data can be ingested from one or more sources including: 

Azure Event Hubs – for telemetry and event stream data 

Azure IoT Hub – for IoT-based data ingestion 

Azure Blob Storage – for batch or historical data 

2. Query 

The core of ASA is its SQL-like query engine. You can use the language to: 

Filter, join, and aggregate streaming data 

Apply time-window functions 

Detect patterns or anomalies in motion 

3. Output 

The processed data can be routed to: 

Azure SQL Database 

Power BI (real-time dashboards) 

Azure Data Lake Storage 

Azure Cosmos DB 

Blob Storage, and more 

Example Use Case 

Suppose an IoT system sends temperature readings from multiple devices every second. You can use ASA to calculate the average temperature per device every five minutes: 

This simple query delivers aggregated metrics in real time, which can then be displayed on a dashboard or sent to a database for further analysis. 

Key Features 

Azure Stream Analytics offers several benefits: 

Serverless architecture: No infrastructure to manage; Azure handles scaling and availability. 

Real-time processing: Supports sub-second latency for streaming data. 

Easy integration: Works seamlessly with other Azure services like Event Hubs, SQL Database, and Power BI. 

SQL-like query language: Low learning curve for analysts and developers. 

Built-in windowing functions: Supports tumbling, hopping, and sliding windows for time-based aggregations. 

Custom functions: Extend queries with JavaScript or C# user-defined functions (UDFs). 

Scalability and resilience: Can handle high-throughput streams and recovers automatically from failures. 

Common Use Cases 

Azure Stream Analytics supports real-time data solutions across multiple industries: 

Retail: Track customer interactions in real time to deliver dynamic offers. 

Finance: Detect anomalies in transactions for fraud prevention. 

Manufacturing: Monitor sensor data for predictive maintenance. 

Transportation: Analyze traffic patterns to optimize routing. 

Healthcare: Monitor patient vitals and trigger alerts for abnormal readings. 

Power BI Integration 

The most effective connection between ASA and Power BI serves as a fundamental feature. Asustream Analytics lets users automatically send data which Power BI dashboards update in fast real-time. Operations teams with managers and analysts can maintain ongoing key metric observation through ASA since it allows immediate threshold breaches to trigger immediate action. 

Best Practices 

To get the most out of Azure Stream Analytics: 

Use partitioned input sources like Event Hubs for better throughput. 

Keep queries efficient by limiting complex joins and filtering early. 

Avoid UDFs unless necessary; they can increase latency. 

Use reference data for enriching live streams with static datasets. 

Monitor job metrics using Azure Monitor and set alerts for failures or delays. 

Prefer direct output integration over intermediate storage where possible to reduce delays. 

Getting Started 

Setting up a simple ASA job is easy: 

Create a Stream Analytics job in the Azure portal. 

Add inputs from Event Hub, IoT Hub, or Blob Storage. 

Write your SQL-like query for transformation or aggregation. 

Define your output—whether it’s Power BI, a database, or storage. 

Start the job and monitor it from the portal. 

Conclusion 

Organizations at all scales use Azure Stream Analytics to gain processing power for real-time data at levels suitable for business operations. Azure Stream Analytics maintains its prime system development role due to its seamless integration of Azure services together with SQL-based declarative statements and its serverless architecture.  

Stream Analytics as a part of Azure provides organizations the power to process ongoing data and perform real-time actions to increase operational intelligence which leads to enhanced customer satisfaction and improved market positioning.

What is HarmonyOS NEXT - RelationalStore?

Relational databases provide a universal operational interface for applications, with SQLite as the persistent storage engine at the underlying level, supporting the database features of SQLite, including but not limited to transactions, indexes, views, triggers, foreign keys, parameterized queries, and precompiled SQL statements.

Applicable scenarios: In scenarios where complex relational data is stored, such as the student information of a class, which needs to include names, student IDs, subject grades, etc., or the employee information of a company, which needs to include names, job IDs, positions, etc. Due to the strong correspondence between data, the complexity is higher than that of key value data. In this case, a relational database needs to be used to persistently store the data.

constraint qualification ·The default logging mode of the system is WAL (Write Ahead Log) mode, and the default disk dropping mode is FULL mode. ·There are 4 read connections and 1 write connection in the database. When a thread obtains a free read connection, it can perform a read operation. When there is no free read connection and there is a free write connection, the write connection will be used as a read connection. ·To ensure data accuracy, the database can only support one write operation at a time. ·After the application is uninstalled, the relevant database files and temporary files on the device will be automatically cleared. ·Basic data types supported by ArkTS side: number、string、 Binary type data boolean。 ·To ensure successful insertion and reading of data, it is recommended that one piece of data should not exceed 2M. Exceeding this size, insertion successful, read failed.

Basic concepts: ·Predicate: A term used in a database to represent the properties, characteristics, or relationships between data entities, primarily used to define the operating conditions of the database. ·Result set: refers to the set of results obtained by the user after querying, which can be accessed for data. The result set provides a flexible way of accessing data, making it easier for users to obtain the data they want.

How to Prevent Business Logic Vulnerabilities in Laravel Apps

Introduction

Business Logic Vulnerabilities (BLVs) are some of the most subtle and critical issues that developers can overlook in Laravel applications. These vulnerabilities can lead to unauthorized access, data manipulation, and other serious security risks if not addressed properly.

In this blog post, we will dive deep into Business Logic vulnerabilities in Laravel, show you common examples, and walk you through the steps to prevent them with practical coding solutions. We’ll also introduce our Website Vulnerability Scanner tool to help you scan your Laravel application for vulnerabilities in real time.

What Are Business Logic Vulnerabilities?

Business Logic vulnerabilities occur when an application’s business rules, workflows, or logic can be bypassed or manipulated by an attacker. Unlike traditional security issues such as SQL injection or cross-site scripting (XSS), these vulnerabilities are often more complex because they are based on the specific design of your application.

Example: Insecure Transaction Logic

Consider a banking application where users are allowed to withdraw money. If the system doesn't properly validate the user's account balance before processing the withdrawal, a user could manipulate the application logic to withdraw more money than they actually have.

How to Prevent Business Logic Vulnerabilities in Laravel

Laravel is a powerful framework, but it’s essential to carefully design and validate the logic of your application to avoid vulnerabilities.

1. Enforcing Authorization at Every Level

To prevent unauthorized access, always ensure that authorization checks are performed at each level of your application. For instance, a user should only be able to access their own data, and not that of other users.

public function viewUserProfile($id) { $user = User::findOrFail($id); // Check if the current user is the owner if (auth()->user()->id !== $user->id) { abort(403, 'Unauthorized action.'); } return view('profile', compact('user')); }

This example ensures that only the user who owns the profile can access it.

2. Using Request Validation

Always validate user inputs, especially when dealing with critical business operations like payments, transfers, or product purchases.

$request->validate([ 'amount' => 'required|numeric|min:10', // Minimum withdrawal of 10 units 'recipient_id' => 'required|exists:users,id', ]); // Process the transfer if validation passes $transaction = Transaction::create([ 'user_id' => auth()->id(), 'amount' => $request->input('amount'), 'recipient_id' => $request->input('recipient_id'), ]);

This ensures that no invalid or malicious data is processed by your application.

3. Implementing Rate Limiting

Rate limiting can prevent attackers from abusing your endpoints and triggering unwanted actions. Laravel provides an easy way to set up rate limiting.

use Illuminate\Cache\RateLimiter; public function register() { RateLimiter::for('login', function (Request $request) { return Limit::perMinute(5)->by($request->email); }); }

In this example, users are limited to five login attempts per minute, preventing brute-force attacks or abuse of business logic.

Use Our Free Website Security Checker

To assist in identifying Business Logic vulnerabilities, we offer a free tool for a Website Security test that you can use on your Laravel project. This tool scans your application for various security risks, including Business Logic vulnerabilities, and provides a detailed report of potential issues.
