POSTED ON:

TAGS: webdev security

I noticed I couldn't copy my credit card number within a bank form.

Notice these?

oncopy="return false"
onpaste="return false"

Pretty interesting.

This is similar to the HTML onclick, where you can tie a function to it.

PHP runs as a separated service when using PHP-FPM.

The fact of having two separate services is key for increasing efficiency.
