Answer
DTOs allow control over what data is exposed.
By using DTOs, you can selectively include or exclude fields in the API response. This ensures that sensitive information, such as passwords or internal IDs, is not accidentally exposed. For example, when retrieving user data, a `UserDTO` can be designed to include only public information, keeping sensitive data hidden.
