Seven questions to ask your web development agency

In a business that builds and modifies large numbers of web applications using a number of different developers, it is critical not just to think about how to make each system secure, but how to build code in a way that ensures that every system is secure.

Below are a number of basic questions that the technical team of any web development agency should be able to give instant answers to.

  • What do you do to ensure that your systems are not vulnerable to SQL Injection?
  • What do you do to ensure that your systems are not vulnerable to XSS (Cross Site Scripting)?
  • What measures are taken to protect passwords?
  • What security measures are taken on log on / log off?
  • How do you implement forgotten password reminders?
  • How do you prevent XSRF (Cross Site Request Forgery) attacks?
  • How do you ensure that sensitive data returned in the pages is not held in browser cache?

To make sure you don't fall prey to unethical hackers, contact us now at Xibis and ask for a web security audit.

We were most impressed with the turn-around time of the project, and also with how efficiently the software searches such a huge number of records. Xibis has again provided us with a very robust and efficient solution.
