Plaintext Vulnerability in Alan Ward Acart




Vulnerability:  Plaintext Vulnerability

etc.  Many times the database is placed into a web accessible folder (by 
default)

Solution:       The developer needs to implement some type of encryption 
standard in order to protect the data stored in the database.
