There's a recent Talk Python To Me Podcast featuring Justin Seitz, the
author of Gray Hat Python and Black Hat Python:
https://talkpython.fm/episodes/show/37/python-cybersecurity-and-penetration-testing
Also, the Ubuntu site's main security page:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security
But honestly I think security takes work and a lot of time to get right,
and it may be better to use tools that have been tested rather than rewrite
things from scratch. Web2Py actually follows the recommendations of the
Open Web Application Security Project (
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Main_Page). Here's their blurb on security
that summarizes the OWASP recommendations:
