Nobody's perfect -- especially computer security professionals. Fortunately, there's a pattern to the mistakes. Here are some of the most common ones to watch for. Bonus #7: Letting the users on the system

OT - There is any reason, that the links from Infoword are to the printable version of the article?

I got into that habit as I hate the people that spread one article across multiple pages to boost their page count. The print view is the closest I could find to a suitable replacement.

Would that be because you don't mind Code Project boosting their page count perchance?

Compile and Execute your favorite programming languages online, click any of the following to proceed! Well, that's it. I don't need VS anymore.

Wow, that's ballsy.
I thought running code you don't know and don't trust from an source you don't trust was just begging for a disaster to happen!
Who knew?

The code is running on the server not on your machine

Oh, well, that's alright then.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Yeah, I know. Say goodbye to your server if you're the one running the site!

It's a virtual machine...I just wrote a infinite loop to write a file and it crashed, but not the server only the virtual machine for me

Any bets on how long it takes for someone to find a security flaw that allows them access to the host?

5 minutes?

Not to mention gifting all your code to some third party who runs the web site.

Some day they will come to a really revolutionary idea: detach Surface screen and keyboard from the rest of the device, and attach a mouse. Then people will be able to keep it on their desks.

They will have to come up with a name for such a radically new device. Since it will then sit on a desk, they could call it the "OnDesk".
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

The Chinese government has officially banned Windows 8 from use on all government computers, reports out of the country claim.
The Xinhua news agency, one of the government's media mouthpieces, reported that the move was designed to improve security on government computers. Yea! Go China!
The chinese government hackers obviously found the back door code in Win8 that let the US government spy on the Chinese government!
[Edit: added link to original story]
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

And perhaps you could add your source? I tried hacking into your computer for it, but it seems you're not using Windows 8, so it didn't work
