The Codio Engineering Blog

We've created a separate engineering blog at http://dev.codio.com for talking about more technical topics that may or may not be directly related to Codio. To give you an idea about the subject matter, the first post is about Graceful Degradation For Non-Standard Web Fonts and how we solved some challenges with web typography. It might not be for everybody, but we think some fellow nerds out there might find it interesting.

Codio is now HTTPS only

For the security conscious, we've made Codio HTTPS only. What this means is that any data transmitted between your browser and Codio will be protected with SSL encryption. There are many known security vulnerabilities associated with HTTP, and a few exploits such as Session Hijacking (allows someone else to log in as you) and Eavesdropping (intercepting sensitive data, such as passwords) have recently become so easy to exploit that they require absolutely zero technical ability.

HTTPS nullifies many of these vulnerabilities, so we've implemented it site-wide in order to do our part in creating a more sane and secure internet. Enjoy!
