The folks at the Open Web Application Security Project publish a list of the top 10 vulnerabilities. In a recent CodeBrew I provided a quick overview of them all and spent a good amount of time focusing on the most prevalent vulnerability, Cross Site Scripting (XSS).

I gave an overview of XSS, stepped through a quick demo (sorry vulnerable site), reviewed the three XSS variations and talked a bit about how to protect one’s site.

References and reading materials were also included in the presentation and, look at that, they are provided here too.

In July I was invited to speak at the UK SQL Server UG event in Manchester. I spoke about Excel being a good data mining client. I was a little rushed at the end as Chris Testa-ONeill told me I had only 5 minutes to go when I had only been talking for 10 minutes. Apparently I have… >>> More
