Abstract
Web apps are essential to contemporary life but are also vulnerable to many security concerns. This article examines real-time threat detection, monitoring, and response techniques at the confluence of JavaScript and security. This study improves online application security by using JavaScript's unique characteristics. This paper examines real-time threat detection methods and their application in JavaScript-driven systems. We demonstrate safe JavaScript development and real-time threat detection and response. We show how these methods protect web applications in real-world cases.

This paper aims to:

● Explore JavaScript for real-time threat detection.

● Give practical advice on JavaScript monitoring and logging.

● Display real-time threat mitigation techniques.

The methodology begins with a comprehensive literature study on real-time threat detection and online application security. Code examples and case studies demonstrate how the topics are used. This research provides a comprehensive understanding of real-time threat detection with JavaScript, equipping developers and security practitioners to protect web applications from evolving threats.

Keywords
Real-time threat detection, JavaScript, Web security, Monitoring, Response mechanisms.
