[DUG] How to make secure MySQL

[jc at magicweb.nz]

Hi all

 

I found out some interesting information re SSL Certification. My host
(Site5.com) has an add-on (for only US$39) which provides SSL. In a chat
they confirmed that just installing it (done by them) would make my website
an SSL including a green bar.

I really still can't believe that it is that simple.

Can anybody confirm that it is really that simple?

Thanks

John C

Hi all

 

Thanks very much for your replies. I'll look into all these options. I found
some interesting bedtime reading about this at
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encrypted-connections.html

Hi all

 

Can anybody give me some pointers and/or examples of how to make my web app
- using MySQL - secure. At the moment I'm just transferring the bare
passwords across, not a good idea I guess.

Secondly, once logged in, a session variable determines a logged in status -
safe enough?

 

Thanks for any reply.
