Is it possible to locate Tor/proxy users? Spam is getting on my nerves @asadz - No solution is perfect. Modern CAPTCHAs exist to both prevent automated spamming and to slow down manual spamming. Suppose our OP is getting 1000 spam messages and it takes 2 seconds per message, 2000 seconds. Now add a CAPTCHA that adds an extra second per post, thats 3000 seconds (~15 minutes). Throttling posts by IP or user has a similar effect. Now this strategy also affects legitimate users, but a legit user pays a lesser penalty because they only post a few messages or can authenticate. |

How can I protect against email tracking services? This should be doable with other services and email clients as well. |

Why don't people hash and salt usernames before storing them Actually you could. After a successful login store the unhashed username in the session. |

How can attackers bypass firewalls? Wikipedia hardly constitutes a source for detailed information about how firewalls work. |

Dealing with excessive “Carding” attempts "As one is declined they usually try it again repeatedly changing the card number by 1 or 2 numbers" - This doesn't sound right. CC numbers are self-checksummed using the Luhn algorithm. I think you'd need to change more than one or two digits to get a valid number. At any rate, you can limit these attempts by having your site also do a checksum validation of any card entered. It will help usability too, this is designed to prevent miskeying a number. |

What is the term to use when logging an event where a user downloads or prints PHI? Looking at RFC 3881 I see export and disclosure. What is the difference? |

Can webcams be turned on without the indicator light? Don't forget to have someone else test your security. It is very easy for me to design a box that I cannot break into, it is much harder to design a box that someone else cannot break into. |
