for creating "hack resilient" apps. Use the guide to secure the network,
host and application (there's something for architects, devs, system
admins, testers, and security pros). It's principle-based and threat
focused. Guidance is task-based and modular with tons of implementation
steps. Deep drill-down on each technology, Code Access Security, ASP.NET,
Enterprise Services, Web Services, Remoting, and Data Access (ADO.NET/SQL
