Ensuring a website is consistent and easy to maintain are two of the biggest headaches faced by larger organisations. Fortunately pattern libraries can help.

Within the startup community there is a saying “release early”. However, is that actually a good idea and does it apply to all websites? Open source content management systems have come to dominate the sector, but does that mean there is never a reason to use a proprietary, licensed system? Have you heard the term object oriented? There are literally hundreds of CSS frameworks that make coding quicker and easier than ever before. Increasingly the web design community is turning to responsive design, but where does that leave separate mobile websites? It has long been a point of contention as to whether designers should be able to code, but what about other web professionals. The next season of the Boagworld Podcast is going to debate the major issues surrounding web design.

Bearded Octo. VentraIP Blog. April 10th, 2014 @ 03:50PM - 0 Comment(s) At the start of this week there was an OpenSSL vulnerability that was made public which effectively allowed hackers to be able to dump 64kb worth of content sitting in the server memory. This memory is often used to store private keys and other private information. For those that are unaware, OpenSSL is the cryptographic library that is used to secure a very large percentage of the Internet’s traffic (including services with majority of web hosting providers around the world, including VentraIP Australia). Whilst there is no proof of concept showing that private keys for SSL certificates could be leaked in their entirety using this vulnerability, the threat definitely exists and could potentially allow users to decrypt SSL encrypted data (which is especially bad for credit card transactions).

We would also like to stress that we have no reason to believe that any data has been breached from any of our infrastructure. It’s sale time! Cause Restoration.
