[removed] client-side vs. server-side validation

Question

Which is better to do client side or server side validation?

In our situation we are using

• jQuery and MVC.
• JSON data to pass between our Vi

Answer 1

Client side data validation can be useful for a better user experience: for example, I a user who types wrongly his email address, should not wait til his request is processed by a remote server to learn about the typo he did.

Nevertheless, as an attacker can bypass client side validation (and may even not use the browser at all), server side validation is required, and must be the real gate to protect your backend from nefarious users.
