The realest thing Naval has said.
“As long as you’re doing what you want, it’s not a waste of your time. But if you’re not spending your time doing what you want, and you’re not earning, and you’re not learning - what the heck are you doing?”
While at campus, my good IP lecturer Fredrick Mpanga at MUK told me to watch the movie titled ‘Scent of a woman’ starring Al Pacino.
He also told me to watch coach Carter by Samuel L Jackson.
When i watched those movies, I understood why he told me to watch them.
10 backend security concepts every dev should understand:
1. Authentication vs Authorization
2. JWT (stateless auth, but risky if misused)
3. OAuth2 / OpenID Connect
4. Rate limiting (protect against abuse)
5. CORS (browser boundary control)
6. CSRF & XSS (most ignored attack vectors)
7. TLS / Encryption (data in transit)
8. Secrets management (never hardcode)
9. API key lifecycle (rotate, scope, revoke)
10. Zero Trust (never trust internal traffic)
Most systems fail not because of missing features
but because of weak security fundamentals
