Hello,
Recently, I asked about server side pushing, and the answers I received were focused on polling and fully duplexed HTTP.
Both require long-living connections between server and client that persist for much longer than it takes to simply load one page.
How safe is this?
I feel that long lasting connections may be susceptible to hacking.
If a server becomes compromised, a client can have all kinds of nasty things sent his way.
Thanks.
