On Cyberlot's weblog today, there's a new post that poses the question to all its readers - "What does secure mean?"

People are ranting and raving about security in PHP.

Depending on who you ask the security issues in PHP can be the cause of various "problems". Some people feel PHP just sucks and breeds bad and poor programmers. Others will talk all day about code injection, sql injection, session fixation on and on and on, there are 101 reasons why your script could be insecure right now!!!

He's talking the "do the best you can to make your script secure, but you can never do it one-hundred percent" approach. You have to rely on so many other people's code (yes, PHP is written by people too) to be correct that you can never fully be sure that your code won't bring up a vulnerability.

In reality its a invisible line that exists but does nothing. Take the proper measures, Do what needs to be done but think it out, don't over do it. Don't let it take control and ruin your product.
