Hi
I have written a php website. In this site I sell some license and
serial number. I need to protect serial numbers and user names and
passwords against sniffers and crackers. Now I want to secure this
site and encrypt sessions using https.
What do i have to do?


server
========
[1] mod_security is helpful. Teach it according to your requirement.
[2] From apache or .htaccess restrict bad robots
[3] rewrite rule to redirect non http to https

php
====
php should have some sort of security obviously. Have you implemented those ?
php gurus can suggest more.

thanks
