My department used contractors like myself to support legacy software. I think there are a few reasons for it. 1. I know that hiring contractors was significantly easier than hiring full-timers. Fewer interviews, less setup time, less coord

If you are hosting in-house, keep it on a box by itself, seperate from the rest of your network. Then lock down the permissions so that a web user can't write files. That should eliminate 98% of the security problems. If possible you m

I'm now desperately trying to remember the PHP book I read in 2007. It was nowhere near as bad as the example here but I'm sure it used globals everywhere and had other bad examples. It definitely reminds me of when I first tried
