Using base64 encode and decode to store user data in database

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In order to prevent SQL injection, can one simply base64 encode the
data and store that? Then it can be decoded when I need to display it
on a website. I understand that this means that the data will not be
searchable, and that I still must sanitize it before printing it on
the site. Are there any other drawbacks or things to be aware of?
Thanks.
