Intro to website cms security for developers
A Talk by James Walker, at Unconference
Abstract
Concepts of web security for developers, using techniques for WordPress as example.
Main Description
We will look at security-hardening techniques for WordPress, as examples to understand concepts of web security.
In the process, we will be subjected to James' rants about why security matters, the incredible power of the Web that is in your hands, and like that.
“The increasing importance of information and communication has brought with it another phenomenon: the rise of a surveillance society. You can think of surveillance as an attempt by the powerful to maintain their dominance by asserting control over communication.” (riseup.net)
