CloudFlare - The Heartbleed Bug - Webinar
An encryption flaw, called the Heartbleed bug, is already referred to as one of the biggest security threats on the Internet. The flaw, announced on April 7th, allows an attacker to pull bits of data from a server and potentially access sensitive information. How did the Heartbleed bug happen? How does it affect your website? What can you do protect yourself? CloudFlare security engineer Nick Sullivan answers these and more questions on this CloudFlare webinar. At the last portion of the webinar we have Ben Murphy (one of the winners of the CloudFlare Heartbleed challenge) on a Q&A session.
