In CEH v13 Module 12: Hacking Web Applications, the N-tier architecture is explained as a model used in web applications, typically with:
Presentation tier – User interface (UI) that interacts with the user.
Logic tier (also known as application or business logic layer) – Processes commands, makes logical decisions, and handles data movement and processing between the UI and the database.
Data tier – Manages database access and data storage.
So, the Logic tier is responsible for:
Handling the business rules.
Processing user inputs.
Accessing and manipulating data from the database.
