Parameterized queries (prepared statements) separate SQL code from user-supplied data by using placeholders for input values. The database engine compiles the query structure first, then binds user data as parameters that cannot alter the query logic. This approach eliminates SQL injection regardless of what input an attacker provides.
SQL injection remains one of the most common and damaging web vulnerabilities. Parameterized queries are the definitive fix. Penetration testers flag applications that build SQL with string concatenation. Security engineers audit code and database access layers to verify parameterized queries are used everywhere. This is a standard question in security interviews.
