SQLi Injection Attacks

SQL injection attacks, are by far the most prevalent types of attacks. SQLi attacks are when the user adds code to a database and can start changing databases, from creating accounts such as administrator, chaning database information such as prices/money values or deleting entire databases. 

If spotted SQLi attacks are a very high level of threat which should be mitigated immediately.
