Use smart pointers and RAII to keep memory safe in C++. They ensure resources are released exactly when you need. This means fewer leaks and bugs, stronger exception safety, and less time spent hunting for silent errors. We have seen…
If someone has spent any time writing code in C or C++, they know how quickly a buffer overflow can creep in. We have seen firsthand how a single unchecked array index, a forgotten buffer size, or a careless use…
Use SEI CERT C standards to cut out coding flaws before they turn into security nightmares. We’ve found that strict rule compliance and practical static analysis can catch bugs early. Real-world code examples and automated checks help teams write, audit,…
Use the right standards. Check your bounds. Never trust what you read off the wire. Secure coding in C and C++ is less about clever tricks and more about relentless discipline. The classics, buffer overflows, race conditions, memory leaks, still…
