 | # Working with AJAX and CSRF
> "Take a close look at possible CSRF / XSRF vulnerabilities on your own websites. They're the worst kind of vulnerability -- very easy to exploit by attackers, yet not so intuitively easy to understand for software developers, at least until you've been bitten by one."
>
>  — [Jeff Atwood][cite]
* Explain need to add CSRF token to AJAX requests.
* Explain deferred CSRF style used by REST framework
* Why you should use Django's standard login/logout views, and not REST framework view
