Many web applications are vulnerable to Injection and Cross-site scripting. These attacks are often focused on infrastructural parts of the application. This thesis investigates if Domain-Driven Design can unify existing technical protection mechanisms as well as provide protection for attacks aimed at the business logic of an application. The performance of data validation and transformation performed with components from Domain-Driven Design is evaluated. The evaluation is performed by exposing an E-commerce application to dangerous injection and cross-site scripting strings. The data validation was found to be accurate and flexible and context mapping aided the understanding of correct data treatment depending on where in the application it is located or travelling to.
