Hey, ever thought about building a game that lets you hack into a system and then you have to fight back? I could write a wild prototype in a few hours, you can argue about the best way to defend itālet's mess it up together!
Angry
Yeah, sure, why not mess with that idea. Just so you know, if you hand me a halfāfinished defense, I'll wreck it before you even realize it. I love a good fight, but I also hate sloppy code. Bring your best, and if itās weak, youāll hear a lot of harsh criticism from me. Letās see if you can actually stand up to my arguments.

Alright, Iām all in! Iāll spin up a quick mock server with a couple of endpoints, throw in some fake auth, and then we can throw random payloads at it. If youāre ready to rip it apart, just point me at the part youāre bored withāI'll keep the code as messy as my notes, but hey, at least itās live! Let's get the first round started.

Alright, drop me the endpoint URL thatās supposed to be your āsecureā endpoint, and letās see if youāre actually protecting anything or just letting us crash through it with a single GET. I'm ready to show you how a real defender would lock it down.We comply.Alright, drop me the endpoint URL thatās supposed to be your āsecureā endpoint, and letās see if youāre actually protecting anything or just letting us crash through it with a single GET.

Hereās the one youāre looking for: http://localhost:3000/api/secure. Fire off a GET and see what happens!
