SQL injection represents one of the most dangerous and well-known, yet misunderstood, security vulnerabilities on the Internet, largely because there is no central repository of information to turn to for help. "SQL Injection Attacks and Defense" is a book devoted exclusively to this long-established but recently growing threat. It includes all the currently known information about these attacks and significant insight from its contributing team of SQL injection experts.

This book excerpt contains the book's entire first chapter entitled, "What is SQL injection?" This chapter looks at what SQL injection is and how it works.
