how does it actually happen?

I've been hearing/reading about websites being hacked. How does this thing actually happen? How could your website get hacked? Is it when someone gets access to your hosting or ftp account?

 

Either that or a security issue with the server language, db, etc. It's possible to do a lot of stuff to an unsecured website, sometimes even get access to the server. The most common issue in security nowadays come from sql injections, but there are a lot of other ways to harm a site if it is not well protected...

 

which server language is secure in nowadays

 

php and jsp are more safe than asp .
however jsp is not popular.

server being hacked is usually caused by scripts backdoor, defection, bugs.

 

The more popularity of your site - the more availability of hacking.

 

oh.......this is a truth , even though site have more security hackers can hack site .....lol

 

jsp is not popular in webmasters because java hosting is costly

 

Errr... What happens when a site gets hacked? What are the indications? Most importantly, how does one avoid getting one's website hacked?

 

normally hackers put their nick names in index pages

 

Yeah right, SQL Injections is the IN-THING these days
