Project Summary
A HIPAA-regulated healthcare portal required deep security remediation after a third-party audit revealed multiple SQL injection and XSS exposures in its legacy controllers.
Technical Implementation
- XSS Prevention: Rewrote output logic to enforce strict Blade sanitization and implemented robust Content Security Policies (CSP).
- Encryption: Layered Eloquent model encryption on all personal health information (PHI) fields at the database level.
- WAF Integration: Configured Cloudflare Web Application Firewall rules tailored for typical PHP/Laravel routing exploits.
Impact & Results
- Passed 100% of follow-up external penetration tests.
- Achieved full HIPAA security compliance.
- Eliminated automated scanner exploits entirely.
