Django: Web Development with Python

Summary

In this chapter, we looked at the common types of attacks affecting websites and web applications. In many cases, the explanation of the techniques has been simplified for clarity at the cost of detail. However, once we understand the severity of the attack, we can appreciate the countermeasures that Django provides.

In our final chapter, we will take a look at pre-deployment activities in more detail. We will also take a look at the various deployment strategies, such as cloud-based hosting for deploying a Django application.
