GraphQL Security

GraphQL security involves protecting the data and systems when using GraphQL APIs, which allow clients to request specific data. Key measures include validating user permissions to prevent unauthorized access, limiting the amount and complexity of queries to avoid server overload (called throttling), and securing the API against vulnerabilities like injection attacks. It's also important to enforce secure connections (HTTPS) and monitor usage for suspicious activity. Proper security ensures that only authorized users can access sensitive data, and the system remains robust, performant, and protected from malicious actions.
