Once you\'re enabled with the rn techniques covered in this book, you can start to alleviate some of the rn inherent vulnerabilities that make today\'s software so susceptible to rn attack. The book uses web servers and web applications as running rn examples throughout the book. For the past few years, the Internet has rn had a "wild, wild west" flavor to it. Credit card numbers are stolen in rn massive numbers. Commercial web sites have been shut down by Internet rn worms. Poor privacy practices come to light and cause great rn embarrassment to the corporations behind them. All these rn security-related issues contribute at least to a lack of trust and loss rn of goodwill. Often there is a monetary cost as well, as companies rn scramble to clean up the mess when they get spotlighted by poor security rn practices. It takes time to build trust with users, and trust is hard to rn win back. Security vulnerabilities get in the way of that trust. rn Foundations of Security: What Every Programmer Needs To Know helps you rn manage risk due to insecure code and build trust with users by showing rn how to write code to prevent, detect, and contain attacks. rn - The lead author cofounded the Stanford Center for Professional rn Development Computer Security Certification. rn - This book teaches you how to be more vigilant and develop a sixth rn sense for identifying and eliminating potential security rn vulnerabilities. rn - You\'ll receive hands-on code examples for a deep and practical rn understanding of security. rn - You\'ll learn enough about security to get the job done.rnrn http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1590597842/
