title: What should every web developer know about encryption?
body: <p>I've just landed a PHP5 gig. I won't be handling the parts of the application that involve super sensitive data, but I still know embarrassingly little about security and encryption methods. I only know the very basics (don't store passwords in plaintext, don't allow users to run code using post data, etc). What do I need to know to keep my applications secure, and where can I learn it?</p>
