Ruby on Rails framework security

Hello there - it’s been some time since I wrote my last post here so I thought it would be a nice deal to share something with you. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the Ruby on Rails framework. I will probably spend some posts talking about framework security given the increase in web application related frameworks and the fact that none of them are bullet proof.

One cool framework for Ruby programmers is Ruby on Rails. You can find it here: http://www.rubyonrails.org/

After some quick googling around I found the “Ruby on Rails Security Project” which is a website/project destined at reviewing security aspects of the framework and providing all necessary resources that ROR programmers would need to have handy at the time of securing their web applications.

Such a project can be found at: http://www.rorsecurity.info/

They have a sweet Cheat-sheet available at: http://www.rorsecurity.info/ruby-on-rails-security-cheatsheet/

If you ever do any RoR programming, then you’ll probably find those links useful.
