As a developer, I have faced my fair share of security mishaps. I recall times when I accidentally exposed sensitive data in logs or sent a network request over a non-encrypted HTTP channel when HTTPS was available. I'm sure many of you can relate to these situations. We may not be security experts, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take measures to protect our applications. This is where Bearer, a new security tool for Ruby and JavaScript apps (Java coming soon), comes into play.

COBOL is imperative, procedural and, since 2002, object-oriented. COBOL is primarily used in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies and governments. It is still in use despite the fact that many consider it an outdated programming language, due to the large amount of COBOL code written for business transactions.
