+ Security
+
+
+ When using target="_blank"
with links, it's crucial to include
+ rel="noopener"
or rel="noreferrer"
for security reasons:
+
+
+ - Prevent Access:
rel="noopener"
prevents the new page from accessing the
+ window.opener
property, securing your original page from potential malicious redirects.
+ - Avoid Referer Leakage:
rel="noreferrer"
not only blocks the new page's
+ access to your original page but also stops the Referer header from being sent, protecting user privacy.
+ - Security Risk Mitigation: Using these attributes reduces the risk of phishing attacks
+ and ensures that your site maintains control over its navigation and data.
+
+
+ By following these practices, you can enhance the security of your web application and protect your users.
