PHP Security Consortium

Founded in January 2005, the PHP Security Consortium (PHPSC) is

an international group of PHP experts dedicated to promoting secure

programming practices within the PHP community. Members of the

PHPSC seek to educate PHP developers about security through a

variety of resources, including documentation, tools, and

standards. [more...]

Projects

PHP Security Consortium work is organized into

projects.

These projects can consist of documentation,

utilities, and any other resources that promote the

Consortium's mission.

Each month, we select a noteworthy project as our

Project Spotlight. We also announce new projects and

new releases of existing projects as they are

completed.

Articles

In an effort to highlight sound security practices

in PHP development, we publish articles

that exhibit a high level of quality and accuracy. These

articles can be written by members of the general PHP

community but are subject to Consortium approval.

We also host a Library

that contains links to approved external

resources.

Project Spotlight: SecurityFocus Summaries

The SecurityFocus

Summaries project, led by Daniel Convissor, is the first step

in an effort to better inform the community about vulnerability

discoveries in PHP and in applications that use PHP. The summaries

are aggregated from the weekly SecurityFocus newsletters, and there

is an XML

Feed to which you can subscribe.

Advisories.)
