Krydos Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Wait, security? I always thought he was the guy that made sure the ballpoint and fountain pens actually wrote before they were put in packages and shipped!? Sooooo confused...
xwinuser Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 This topic is still unlocked so I guess you're still taking votes. The first site is bare bones now and says "under construction". The second site has good, meaningful content and gets a message across. The third I really didn't stay on very long. It looked like a copy and paste script for a gamers blog. Those have been recycled since the 90's. Would have been nice to have clickable links. Just a thought. I'm not judging anyone or coming down on hacking. I have done a little hacking myself but I am a little concerned about so many threads on hacking with this being a professional hosting company. Should there be so many?

Krydos Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 The best defense against getting your website or computer hacked is understanding vulnerabilities enough to avoid making those mistakes yourself. If someone is ignorant enough to leave their front door unlocked, then sees a forum post about how people wander around checking front doors to see if any are unlocked, and decides to start locking their front door from then on is that a bad thing? Knowledge is power. However, if someone comes along not just presenting good information, but making plans to attack a certain website or anything else illegal the post will be swiftly deleted.
xwinuser Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 Glad you don't delete or censor differing opinions. I am not trying to start conflict but just discuss and contribute to the conversations. Thanks.
rgrace Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 How can you protect your site if you do not know how the enemy attacks?
2bigpigs Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 It's always better to know how the enemy attacks. It'll depend on what your site does. If it's a simple blog or forum, You probably don't have much to worry about. If you scripted up a lot of it yourself, Then you'll want to read up on the common vulnerabilities. On topic:Is there a chance we'll have another competition?Or some place i can ask for feedback on my system?
Ice IT Support Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 You can always ask for feedback in the Website Managenent & Coding forum.
anush Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 When is the next competition. will it be there next month.
