Have you ever wondered how websites actually get hacked? For someone with moderate PHP and mySQL knowledge it can actually be quite simple. So how can you protect your website? One of the best ways is to learn design features that are commonly exploited by hackers. A few days ago I came across an article covering common techniques hackers use to hack into your website. It’s full of information that website owners should know.
The article covers some basic SQL injection techniques, backdoor, automated, and remote injections. If your looking for ways to improve the security of your blog, this article may give you a few places to start.

- May 30, 2008: SQL Injection Attack
That is a good article you are referencing. This is an important subject and is made worse if you aquire a common script… some scripts have holes and attackers can easily search for your site, find it, and exploit those holes.
Some other scripts such as phpbb have multiple security upgrades, and one has to keep up with all of them.
Since you can never plug all the holes, it is important to have backups that you can restore to, later once you are hacked.
