    The is very little in this article that isn't in the class of, "If you don't know this already, you probably shouldn't be running any dynamic content". I thought it would at least go into stuff about securing pages that allow updating of content or configuration from web pages, but I didn't see any of this. Stuff like SSL, authentication and certificates.
