The posts I’ve been reading and writing recently have reminded me how Object-Relational Mapping ( ORM ) systems make it fun and convenient to interact with databases. For some of the reasons they’re a developer’s favorite, they can be a database administrator’s nightmare (think surrogate keys). But designing tables with a consistent set of columns has its benefits. Just because the columns are meta-data that have no intrinsic meaning doesn’t mean they have no value . In this series of articles I’ll show you several ways to use such “meaningless” meta-data to enable powerful, efficient application-level role-based access control ( RBAC ) in the database, with a focus on web applications, though you could do this for any application. The systems I’ve built are complex, so I’ll split this into at least two articles.

Ok, I just finished a terrible (extended) weekend that featured 12 hours of CSS coding. The only reason I didn't loose my sanity was that I finally decided to figure out what the heck is wrong with IE . Those of you who have to do get their hands dirty in the field of graphics, css, and other non-php work from time to time as well, make sure to check out Position is Everything at some point, it really helped me out quite a bit so far. Anyway, that's not really what I want to talk about today. One of the topics I have been very silent about for months is ACL. At the end of May I was somewhat unhappy with some of the things regarding the CakePHP DB ACL implementation.Blogs

So let's dive into the world of passwords, and look at what makes a password secure in practical terms.
