MortimerJazz Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Securing a MySQL database is something that has been nagging at me for a while. I count myself as comfortable PHP coder: ie I know the basics, can write useful scripts and enjoy pushing myself with trying to do more complex things. However, I'm very much aware that I don't know a whole lot about security issues. I could quite inadvertently have security holes in my code and not realise it. Soooo ... I was wondering whether anybody has any good links to articles regarding common PHP/MySQL security issues and ways to solve them. It doesn't have to be totally comprehensive, but seeing as I'm hoping to be working on more database driven websites, I really think that I should be trying my best to make things as secure as possible in my coding. Ta very much for your help, Morty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
