comment Check for database tampering
@HenningKlevjer In my mind, a salt is a little add to make more flavour. Normaly, the salt is stored in same database than the hashed value himself. A secret phrase have to not be stored on same machine.

comment Is there a law against one email containing both a login and a password?
Best practice? minimal practice! Private keys and password have to not travel on public internet roads! No laws, but many enterprises conditions (mostly by signed contracts).

comment Are older viruses removed from virus definition files?
@ruda.almeida You're right, my last comment was more a joke, viruses could die! But, knowing that most of security failure are more worked around than whipped out, if a very old virus (forgotten) stay alive on a very old host (maybe forgotten too) and a new feature break a previous workaround, the old virus could resurect!

Obsolescence is a commercial concept linked to objects that people would buy. Normal person would not buy an upgrade to a virus! In fact: old viruses won't become useless ;-)

From time tools like rsync exists, we know that updating a growing database don't need to transfer more datas than differences!
