Subject: Re: Dynamic vs. static URLs: a Pop Picks follow-up
MY two cents worth is that maintaining static URLs is a much easier
task than working with dynamic URLs.
Static URLs are more abstract, and thus more difficult to hack. The
dynamic URLs are more transparent, allowing possible hackers to see
the technology used to build them and thus facilitating attacks.
Hackers will also be looking for dynamic urls to attack with Cross
Site Scripting. Any web page which passes parameters to a database can
be vulnerable to this hacking technique.
