Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

ColdFusion xxs Cross-Site Scripting XSS is a common malicious online attack in which hackers inject harmful coding script into web pages in order to steal sensitive information. The Adobe ColdFusion programming language creates powerful web pages that connect seamlessly with databases.

ColdFusion maintains interoperability with HTML, JavaScript and Adobe online architectures; web developers have experience preventing malware attacks against these systems.

-What is Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)?

Cross-Site Scripting, XSS, attackers use malicious executable code to steal sensitive information or the means to acquire that personal data from a legitimate site. With ColdFusion, typical XSS attacks will acquire the underlying template for creating customer information forms so that the criminals can create their own counterfeit form. Using this fake form, the hacker misdirects customers to the hacker’s site to steal birth dates, passwords or bank account information.

Long-term dangers include the ability of the criminal to impersonate customers after acquiring authentication and identification credentials. An XSS attack might occur due to flaws on the client side or server side. There are different types of Cross-Site Scripting attacks (persistent or non-persistent).

Sometimes, XSS is only one harmful tool amongst many elements of a malware attack that could include Trojan Horses, rootkits or worms. Complex XSS script attacks can be self-propagating.ColdFusion web development professionals know how to combat all of these threats preventing infestations.

-ColdFusion Security

ColdFusion security web developers know how to prevent hackers from stealing information using counterfeit forms. ColdFusion experts can review all manual code to retain the functionality and responsiveness of the web pages.

They know how to write, organize and maintain coding script so that potential security holes are plugged. Don’t settle for second-rate when defending your website against XSS, trust accomplished ColdFusion web development experts.

Because Adobe Flex developmentrequires a fairly high-level of programming expertise, not every company wanting to provide web applications utilizing Flex has the resources necessary to do so. If your business wishes to use Flex, you should utilize a Flex development company that has the know-how to build efficient Flex applications. The Flex development company you choose should have Flex developers who understand the Flex application development process and how to take advantage of Flex’s powerful code base.

Many software development companies may try to tout the benefits of their particular programming language and how useful it is.

Why Companies Need to Have a Mobile Version of Their Web Site

Any company that wants to reach its target audience needs to have a mobile version of their Web site. According to Cisco’s Visual Networking Index, mobile data traffic tripled from 2010 to 2011, and the average use of smart phones doubled in 2010. Today, smartphones represent 78-percent of global mobile data traffic. These numbers alone should be enough to convince a savvy business owner that a mobile Web site is important.
A mobile website provides your business with a fast and efficient way to connect with your customers. Today’s customers don’t want to be encumbered by a desktop or laptop. They want your products or information about your business right now. Today’s customers will not wait to get home and look at your site. They’ll use their smartphone and find someone else.

Mobile websites allow you to give customers an easier way to purchase your products and services. Most mobile device users store their purchasing and credit information on their device. With a click of a button they can easily make a purchase. Making things easier for your customers will result in sales, which means a larger bottom line for your business.

If your company has a Web site developed in ColdFusion, it’s important for you to consider having your mobile site built by a company that specializes in mobile ColdFusion Web development. The explosion in mobile technology will continue to grow, and it’s important for your business to develop a mobile Web development strategy. By doing this, you will make it easier for your customers to access your Web content, which in turn will help your business grow.

The mobile Web isn’t a fad. If you want your company to take advantage of this growth, it’s time for you to consider a mobile web development strategy.

A Flex Shopping Cart provides the following unique features:

1.  Pageless navigation: that means your customers don’t have to hop from page to page in order to complete the transaction while using the Flex Shopping Cart; everything happens on a single page like a desktop application.

2.  The changes are reflected immediately: as your customers quickly add new items and change the quantities of existing items the changes are immediately reflected without having the pages to be reloaded.  This significantly increases the speed and interactivity.

3.  Secure, single-screen checkout: a single screen checkout reduces the chances of abandonment and distraction.  The entire transaction takes place extremely fast and your customers don’t lose track of what they are doing due to countless distractions existing on the Internet.  Our Flex Shopping Cart is completely secure.

4.  Comprehensive administrative area: you can control all the aspects of our Flex Shopping Cart using a highly intuitive administrative area that can be accessed using login ID and password.  You can assign various accessibility levels for your employees.  You can maintain your entire stock, reporting formats and calculation algorithms using the administrative area of the Ecomsolutions.net Flex shopping cart.

5.  Native support for rich media: who says that a shopping cart only means drab numbers and inactive purchasing functions?  Make your shopping cart highly interactive by embedding audio, video and even Flash animations using the native support for rich media in our Flex Shopping Cart.

6.  Countless design styles and skins: brand the Flex Shopping Cart according to the layout of your own Website; your customers don’t have to know that you are using an external Application to handle business transactions.  Through various designs and skins you can totally customize the look and feel of our Flex Shopping Cart.

7.   Multiple international currencies and automatic exchange rates: once you start selling on the Internet people buy from you from all over the world and you cannot simply offer them a single currency.  Our Flex Shopping Cart gives you the ability to let your customers pay in their own currencies.  This way they feel totally at ease while shopping on your Website and they don’t have to use external help to figure out how much they need to pay you in case they pay using their own currency.

8.  Filtered navigation and sorting: give complete control of how the data is displayed on your shopping cart to your customers so that they completely feel at home while shopping at your website.  Our Flex Shopping Cart lets them customize the navigation and sort the displayed items according to names, values, and even their colors.

9.  Custom product display and layout: as explained above, the sky is the limit when it comes to customizing the display of your products and prices using our Flex shopping cart. Display your products in whichever way you want to so that practically no distractions and confusions occur when people are buying from you; this ensures seamless transactions without the chances of your customers leaving the transaction midway.

10. Automated shipping and tax calculations: once these calculations have been defined using the administrative area they are calculated automatically while your customer is adding items to the shopping cart.  Every calculation happens in real-time and immediately on the same screen so that your customers don’t lose track of what they are doing.  They don’t have to carry out even a single calculation.  It’s as simple as clicking on individual items in order to add them to the shopping cart and then clicking the checkout link in order to pay on the same screen.

So what’s the big deal?  Doesn’t every shopping cart provide these features?
Sure, many shopping carts do provide these features but the startling difference with a Flex Shopping Cart is that everything happens on the same screen — it seems like using a desktop application.  This significantly improves the quality of experience that your customers have while shopping on your Website.  You can animate the processes, you can create highly customized and interactive inventory lists that can be scrolled up and down keeping other components of your current webpage static, and every action, every calculation happens in real time, on a single page.  It totally redefines the way people use and interact with your shopping cart interface.  Your customers will get addicted to it.

Small business web site

Do you manage a Small Business and wonder whether it needs a Website or not?
Many Small Business Operators are faced with this dilemma, especially when they see everyone carrying an official URL on visiting cards and letterheads. The doubt is greater when most of your customers and clients are situated locally. You may ask yourself why your customers and clients would go to your Small Business Website when they can easily drop by at your office or outlet!!

A Website is not just a fad – it used to be a fad maybe 10 years ago but not anymore. Your Website can be as important as your telephone connection, or even your actual business location. We are not saying this because we are in the business of building Websites; these days whenever people have to make a purchase or hire a Service Provider they instinctively log onto the Internet and try to visit the Website of the business. They simply assume that every business these days has a Website – and businesses that don’t, don’t mean business. Irrespective of the fact whether you can directly sell from your web site or not, a Small Business Website can be an integral part of your Shop or Office.
