Secure Coding Best Practices

Computer systems are under siege 24 hours a day, day in and day out. The critical security infrastructure designed to protect those systems, won’t. The other side has the best security hardware and software systems other people’s money can buy and they have all the time in the world to find creative ways to defeat them. Meltdown and Spectre are prime examples of security vulnerabilities that have lurked dormant for decades. Or have they? If your systems are in any way connected to the outside world, the other side will get inside the wire on you. Know that going in.
