Key Concepts Covered:
Data Validation on Trusted Systems: Emphasizing server-side validation as a critical security measure.
Character Encoding and Canonicalization: Ensuring data is encoded to a common character set before validation.
UTF-8 Handling: Validating data after UTF-8 decoding.
Master Encoding Routine: Implementing a unified approach for inbound and outbound encoding.
Validation Against a White List: Using allowed lists of characters to validate input.
Sanitizing Hazardous Characters: Removing or escaping potentially dangerous characters.

Example Code Snippets:
Java Example:
public boolean isValidInput(String input) {
return input.matches("^[a-zA-Z0-9_]+$");
}

JavaScript Example:
function sanitizeInput(input) {
return input.replace(/['"%&()]/g, "");
}

Python Example:
def encode_for_html(data):
import html
return html.escape(data)
