Open Source Firewall
Posted on July 20th, 2010 No commentsAt work we use commercial Firewall appliances, where the vendors charge a fortune for the updates and support, its poor value for money, so I’m going to be looking into the Open Source alternatives, here’s the ones I’ve identified so far, hopefully I’ll get chance to review them and post my findings - http://www.smoothwall.org/ http://www.ebox-platform.com/ http://www.vyatta.com/ http://www.endian.com/en/community/ http://www.untangle.com/ http://www.astaro.com/ http://www.idecogateway.com/ http://www.zeroshell.net/ http://www.collax.com/produkte/detail/produkt/Schutz-vor-Angriffen http://www.clearfoundation.com/

Adding Extra Security – Encrypting Passwords For Multiple Users
Posted on June 26th, 2010 No commentsAs many of you probably know, I’ve been working for quite some time on a project called Private Passwords . It is an online password management tool which stores your passwords for any site and allows you to retrieve them from anywhere in the world. One of the things that has niggled me for a while was the fact that the encrypted passwords were all encrypted using an AES encryption key , but had no real barrier if someone somehow managed to get hold of the AES key

Question: How does source control work in a non-distributed environment?
Posted on February 5th, 2010 No commentsAt our company we currently all work on one shared network drive. The source code is not under any kind of source control, which for me is a big no-no. I’d love to be able to set up SVN and us all work of separate repositories and just commit back to a trunk or branch, but our tech manager doesn’t agree.

Very Exciting – HipHop by Facebook
Posted on February 2nd, 2010 No commentsWell this evening Facebook have revealed what PHP developers globally have been speculating about and revealed their big secret . And boy, this could really change the landscape of PHP as we know it. I’m a great fan of compiling PHP for one reason or another, but I’ve never seen it reliably work.

Handling CType Data With SimpleXML in PHP
Posted on January 15th, 2010 No commentsIf you're new to SimpleXML then the output and representation of complex XML data produced by the library can be daunting and sometimes confusing, but once you're used to it, SimpleXML is a massively useful tool for processing XML information. When debugging other people's implementations of simpleXML however, one of the biggest issues I come across time and again is the apparent loss of CType data from the processed feed. Luckily this is very easily remedied, but not well documented so here's how to deal with it.

cURL Tips – HTTPS requests
Posted on December 15th, 2009 No commentsToo many times have I seen this in cURL clients: curl_setopt ( $ch , CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST , false ) ; curl_setopt ( $ch , CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER , false ) ; Why is this bad? You leave yourself totally open to man-in-the-middle attacks, and makes SSL virtually pointless. Sure the data passed between the two servers would still be encrypted, but there is no way of verifying the server you’re talking to is the server you WANT to be talking to! My recommendation is that you verify the server is genuine by checking against the genuine CA certificate in PEM format.
