#+title: Data sanitization
Data sanitization is the process of ensuring that data conforms to the
requirements of the subsystem to which it is passed. Sanitization also involves
ensuring that data conforms to security-related requirements regarding leaking
or exposure of sensitive data when output across a trust boundary. Sanitization
may include the elimination of unwanted characters from the input by means of
removing, replacing, encoding, or escaping the characters.
