Remediation boundary
What RequestGuard does — and doesn't — cover
RequestGuard does not fix npm package vulnerabilities. Dependency remediation happens through package updates, patches, lockfile changes, and maintainer guidance. RequestGuard can help mitigate runtime abuse around exposed web and API flows while remediation is handled separately.
