10 Python security holes and how to plug them

Episode #168, published Fri, Jul 6, 2018, recorded Thu, Jun 28, 2018

Do you write Python software that uses the network, opens files, or accepts user input? Of course you do! That's what almost all software does. But these actions can let bad actors exploit mistakes and oversights we've made to compromise our systems.

Python is safer than some languages, but there are plenty of issues to be careful about. That's why Anthony Shaw and Anthony Langsworth are joining me to discuss Python security.
