PHP Security

Outer · 08-10-2005, 08:02 PM

Well, I want to know more about PHP security. I am fixing to code a program that will require VERY high security.

I know the basics such as password hashing, SQL injection protection, etc. but I want to know more.

Does anyone know of any good books/websites/articles that can further my knowledge in security when it comes to PHP/Mysql?

Thank You

Make sure that your files are CHMOD'ed properly. That's a biggy. Change passwords often. I know the obvious. :Lol: And DON'T pass SQL queries through the URL bar!

I would also be interested in some resources for advanced security. Does anybody have some?
