Web Security Question:
Do you know what is the Fail-safe approach?

Answer:
- Fail-safe approach defines the level that divides the security such that it is safe even in case the system is failed.
- The fail safe approach doesn’t allow an attacker to take the advantage by breaking in the system and crashes out.
- This approach allows the web server to perform the routines even if the system runs out of the memory in case of any attack.
- The system in attacks doesn’t skip the access to the control check or it doesn’t skip serving any document requested.
- Fail safe approach can force the web server to run of the memory and have a DoS attack.
