About
The Secure Coding Practices skill equips Claude with specialized knowledge to build, review, and maintain highly secure software architectures. It provides proactive guidance on threat mitigation, including defense-in-depth strategies, server-side input validation, robust authentication systems, and industry-standard cryptographic practices. Whether you are building an API from scratch or conducting a deep-dive security audit of legacy code, this skill ensures that critical security controls—such as XSS prevention, SQL injection protection, and secure session management—are integrated into every stage of the development lifecycle to meet standards like OWASP and NIST.
