Layers are a good thing, year round! @CKensekAVG

Security audit your code! -Mike

Don't protect a $500 horse with a $5,000 fence. @Prajan

Similar to securely wiping your HDD, free()ing your memory allocs multiple times destroys any traces of mem contents. @SecureTips

Do not underestimate insider threats. -Pratik Savla
