Re: How to prevent zero day attacks

Hi,
a nice viewpoint in the face of zero days is sandboxing. By sandboxing
applications you accept the fact that,even after what hopefully is a
best effort you will still have security vulnerabilities and you try to
limit as much as possible the effect of such aftermath. This is more
suited to application level as payloads disabling kernel-level
enforcements are not unheard of :-)

Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate
In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.  We look at how SSL works, how 
it benefits your company and how your customers can tell if a site is secure. You will find out how to test, purchase, 
install and use a thawte Digital Certificate on your Apache web server. Throughout, best practices for set-up are 
highlighted to help you ensure efficient ongoing management of your encryption keys and digital certificates.
