Security Is Layered

Escaping the five critical characters is a fundamental defense against XSS, but it is not a complete security solution on its own. Output encoding must match the context where data is rendered (HTML body, attributes, JavaScript, URLs), and it works best combined with input validation, a Content Security Policy and regular security review. Do not treat any single tool — including ours — as a substitute for a proper security process.

Decoding Untrusted Content

Decoding converts entity strings back into raw characters. If you decode content from an untrusted source and then render it as HTML, you may reintroduce the very markup that escaping was protecting you from. Decode for inspection and processing, not for blind injection into a page.
