I’m perplexed when I hear that .net, php, and other programming languages are the best for web development. But they are not sure of its security! For that reason, I am starting this discussion for everyone who can answer my query.

You can use any language to build secure websites or insecure websites.

Can you explain why “they” are not sure about the security of say, php and other languages, and what languages “they” consider secure? I you agree with “them”, then you know what language to use for your own website.

And who are “they”?

The top cybersecurity languages include Java, JavaScript, Python, SQL, PHP, PowerShell, and C.

Two questions.

1. Did you know that Oracle stopped with Java runtime in a browser years ago already because of bad security? They shouldn’t have done that it was a top security language.
2. Do you know any website written in PowerShell? Does it work also on older (say 2020) versions of Linux and the latest Internet Explorer?

Python is best security language

In reply to Which software language best suits web development and its security?

Python has grown to be among the most widely used programming languages at the moment and shows no signs of going away. This language is also well-known for being the finest one for building web applications with an AI and machine learning foundation.

Furthermore, Python’s advancement as a programming language has been aided by the growth of data science. Currently, Python outperforms JavaScript as a language used in academic institutions.

Websites using Python: Facebook, Microsoft, Dropbox, Mozilla, Netflix, YouTube and other Google projects are partially using Python.

There are many programming languages that can be used for web development, and the choice often depends on the specific project and the developer’s preferences. Some popular languages for web development include:

JavaScript: JavaScript is a versatile language that is widely used for both front-end and back-end web development. It is the language of the web, and it’s supported by all modern web browsers.

Python: Python is a popular language for back-end web development and is known for its simplicity and ease of use. It is also a great choice for data analysis and machine learning.

Ruby: Ruby is the language behind the Ruby on Rails web framework, which is known for its convention-over-configuration approach and is popular for building web applications quickly.

PHP: PHP is a popular language for back-end web development and is used to power many popular content management systems (CMS) like WordPress.

When it comes to web development security, it’s important to choose a language that has a strong community and well-maintained libraries that help with common security concerns, such as input validation and encryption. It’s also important to have a good understanding of web application security principles and to use best practices when developing your application.

It’s also important to use a web framework that has security built-in, such as Django for Python, Ruby on Rails for Ruby, Express.js for JavaScript, and Laravel for PHP.

In summary, while any of the above languages can work well for web development and can be secure, it’s important to use best practices and well-maintained libraries and frameworks.

Except for.NET, where information leaking was the top vulnerability, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) was the most prevalent flaw. Through the use of XSS, attackers can evade access controls by injecting client-side script into Web pages that other users are viewing. Information leaking occurs when a website divulges private information that could let an attacker take advantage of the system, including developer comments or error messages.
Other vulnerability findings include:
The highest rate of SQL injection vulnerabilities was found in ColdFusion (11%), followed by ASP (8%) and.NET (6%).
Over 17 percent more XSS vulnerabilities were observed in Perl than in any other language, at a rate of 67 percent.
The use of certain languages has little impact on several vulnerability classifications.
