How to prevent XSS and SQL Injection in a web app?

Hey everyone,

I’m working on securing my web app and want to make sure I’m properly protecting it from Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and SQL Injection attacks. I know using prepared statements and input validation helps, but I’d love to hear how others handle these risks in real-world projects.

What best practices do you follow to prevent these vulnerabilities? Are there any specific tools or libraries you recommend? Also, how do professionals at a web development company typically approach security when building apps for clients?

Would really appreciate any insights—thanks in advance!
