Secure login with Zend Framework

Enrico Zimuel has posted an article on how to build a secure login with Zend Framework:

After a long pause i’m come back on my blog with a post about the development of a secure web login system in PHP with the use of Zend Framework. The issue to build a login system in a web application is quite common. The security aspect of a login system is absolutely important and in this post i have summarized some of the main security points. Of course this is not the final solution but, in my opinion, is a good point of start for PHP developers.

He goes on to show all the key steps required including the use of ZendFormElement_Hash to help secure against CSRF attacks.

All in all a good read and Zend Framework 1.8 compatible too :)

    Thanks for the recommended reading, Rob. I am working toward the Zend Framework Certification and I’ve just bought your book to help me get a good overview of how to apply the various available components :)
