Hello Friends.

i'm a newbie with CI and i have a question, if i use CI my sites are safe from sql injection or cross side scripting?

im considering CI for a proyect but i don't know if i'm safe with just CI or i need extra validations.

All the tools to make a secure site are available in CI, of course it's up to you to use them.

Also take a look at http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/database/active_record.html

...or just take a look at the entire manual :p

Yeah, CI is pretty good in terms of security, but it doesn't take long for an un-educated developer to poke holes in it. You still need to be responsible for making your own code as secure as possible.

I think the right attitude/behaviour for any web programmer is to have some sort of paranoid personality disorder. Big Grin
