- - - HOW-TO: Secure PHP Deployment Patterns -
- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Philadelphia-area application security consultant and Philly OWASP
Chapter Leader Darian Anthony Patrick will present secure PHP
deployment patterns in shared hosting and application-dedicated
deployment environments.

PHP has become one of the most frequently noted development platforms
of vulnerable web applications.  This talk will describe best
practices for separation of PHP applications to minimize effect of a
successful penetration, and the hardening and isolation of PHP itself
to mitigate the effect of successful exploitation of problems in the
language implementation.
