Secure Sitecore : Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability Prevention

In the last Cross Site Scripting (XSS) post: Secure Sitecore : Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability Findings , we looked at how these attacks might look based on the browser the user is using. The interesting factor is that a potential attacker might not use a browser at all. You do not need a browser to initiate requests and process them. Fuzzing is a common technique where an attacker can create potentially invalid requests from scratch to perform testing on applications, to see how they respond.

TIHIDI: Glass Mapper with Custom Models and Mapping using Fluent Configuration

We have to improve the code by adding a pipeline. It bothered me enough all night, that I had to get this out of the way. One its a bit difficult as we are dealing with Windows PowerShell at its code. So post script execution, I decided to add a new pipeline which gets executed along with the commands and the errors reported.

TIHIDI: Install and Configure Glass Mapper 4.x for Sitecore 8.x MVC Solution with Simple Injector 3.x

This blog post will go through how I setup Glass Mapper in a Visual Studio 2015 MVC solution for Sitecore 8.1. I have used other Sitecore ORM solutions but finally ended up liking Glass. Mike Edwards and Nathanael Mann were patient enough to teach me Glass in a short amount of time and the Glass training helped a lot as well.
