SQL Injection is a type of attack that manipulates backend databases through malicious SQL statements inserted into input fields. This can lead to unauthorized access, data theft, and deletion. Developers can defend against SQL injections by using parameterized queries, which ensure that the database executes SQL statements securely by treating the input data as data, not executable code. Regular audits and code reviews, along with employing ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tools that abstract the SQL layer, also help prevent these attacks.
