PHP Life : Dreaded Words

In this weeks PHP Life comic strip, Alex gets an interesting Christmas present from a client!

Dedicated to anyone who has ever had to endure having their source code audited. The process fills you with strange feelings, like someone has invaded your house, or is commenting on your very soul.

Disclaimer: This strip does not imply that having your code checked by Stefan would be a nerve wracking experience! Infact I'm certain he'd do an amazing job. But boy, wouldn't waiting for the results worry you just a little?!

Suppose at the rate Stephen finds holes in applications like phpMyAdmin, it would be quite worring what he would find in your own code

Absolutely

Which I dare say is why it would be worth paying for his services. But don't worry, he's cool with this strip - it wasn't making fun of him, and he appreciated that in his reply to me. It would be great if clients funded security audits on projects as standard, but we all know that simply isn't the case.
