php|architect's Guide to PHP Security ebook

Security is a hot topic these days, with new exploits and patches released on a daily basis for all sorts of operating systems and applications.

Recently, the security bubble has expanded to touch the PHP world, and several well-known applications have been the target of a great number of attacks.

Despite all the negative publicity, however, PHP is and remains a very stable--and very secure--programming environment. php|architect's Guide to PHP Security, written by security expert (and frequent php|architect contributor) Ilia Alshanetsky, provides you with a guide that covers everything you need to secure existing PHP applications and write new ones with security in mind.

* Provides techniques for both PHP 4 and PHP 5 

* Includes a step-by-step guide to securing your applications 

* Provides comprehensive coverage of security design 

* Teaches you how to defend yourself from hackers 

* Shows you how to distract hackers with a "tar pit" to help you fend off potential attacks

Rather than drowning you in overlong explanations, this book focuses on providing you with accurate information on proper security techniques, and showing you a step-by-step approach to writing applications that are stable, secure and reliable.

Php ebook - php architect's Guide to PHP Design Patterns

Product Description

You have probably heard a lot about Design Patterns—a technique that helps you design rock-solid solutions to practical problems that programmers everywhere encounter in their day-to-day work.

Even though there has been a lot of buzz, however, no-one has yet come up with a comprehensive resource on design patterns for PHP developers—until today.

Author Jason E. Sweat's book php|architect's Guide to PHP Design Patterns is the first, comprehensive guide to design patterns designed specifically for the PHP developer. This book includes coverage of 16 design patterns with a specific eye to their applications in PHP when building complex web applications, both in PHP 4 and PHP 5 (where appropriate, sample code for both versions of the language is provided). With a thorough, test-driven approach, this book represents the definitive guide to design patterns for the PHP developer.

As you can expect from a php|architect book, this Guide is very focused on its topic, with none of the fluff that accompanies the large, expensive titles you sometimes find at the bookstore. Naturally, this doesn't come at the expense of depth of coverage or clarity: the book contains tens of scripts that give you a practical overview of every topic covered, from top to bottom.

About the Author

Jason has been an IT professional for over ten years. He is currently the Manager of eBusiness for a Fortune 100 company. He has written several tutorials and articles for the Zend website and php|architect magazine, and has presented talks at numerous PHP conferences.
