The [Escape class](https://github.com/coverity/coverity-security-library/tree/develop/coverity-escapers) contains several escapers for web content. These escaping functions help remedy common defects (mostly cross-site scripting) that occur when the data is inserted into HTML element, HTML attribute values, URI, JavaScript strings, SQL LIKE clauses, etc. More information are available in the [Escape directory](https://github.com/coverity/coverity-security-library/tree/develop/coverity-escapers).
