Making applications secure is more of a culture and habit of a Corporation. It is important to make all
applications secure even though some of them may be accessible in Private Network only. It is important
to make all Intranet, Internet and also local applications secure.
Several agencies have come up with guidelines from time to time. The application developers must be aware of them and also the technique to safeguard the applications and sites against any such documented vulnerability. Rensol has used guidelines given by a few well known Banks, several world famous MNCs and also guidelines of NIC (National Informatics Centre, Government of India) to reduce the application vulnerabilities and consequent risks.
It is important to note that in spite of making applications secure, wrong usage of them may also result in giving out important information like user-id, password, credit card numbers etc. A few sites may plant spywares on user PCs that can capture the keystrokes the user has used and pass it to an unsafe destination through e-mail.

It is
important to use a good anti-virus and anti-spyware software on the user PCs and the servers. But, that is not good
enough to protect your data. If applications are not designed to take care of application access
vulnerabilities, hackers can enter the site although it has most robust anti-spyware or anti-virus
software and the database and commit major difficulties by modifying information or even stealing them
without any trace of such things happening.
Typically a good hacker proofing requires the following:
Typically a good hacker proofing requires the following:
- A robust application security with group level access right security and also page level securities.
- Rich and powerful login functionalities including blocking of password for consecutive unsuccessful attempts, password expiry after a specified duration, length and composition of password text and encryption of the same and many other features.
- Recording IPs of the PCs and audit trailing each transaction automatically.
