– Bjarne Stroustrup, "A rationale for semantically enhanced library languages" C++ Secure Coding GuidelinesThe CERT C++ Secure Coding Guidelines are split into two sections: C++ Rules and C++ Recommendations. The C++ rules are focused on normative guidelines which must be followed for secure coding best practices. These rules are currently under active development. Please create a sign-in account if you are interested in commenting or contributing to these guidelines. |

The C++ recommendations are focused on nonnormative guidelines which are recommended to follow for secure coding best practices, but may be considered more stylistic in their content. The C++ recommendations are not currently under active development. |
