Do run any code that listens on an open port on the internet? This could be a website, a RESTful web service, or (gasp) even a database endpoint.

Troy Hunt, a renowned security expert likes to say that you're doing "free pen. testing for that product right there".

Join Troy and me on this episode of Talk Python To Me. We discuss lessons learned from running the vulnerability monitoring website Have I been pwned? As well as other lessons for developers to keep your code safe while providing public services.
