title: Secure Coding Guidelines for Python
body: <p>Looking at the CERT Secure Standards (Example: <a href="https://www.securecoding.cert.org" rel="nofollow">https://www.securecoding.cert.org</a>), there are specific standards, with great examples of what good and bad code looks like, for C, C++, Java, even Perl but not Python.  Are there any Python specific standards are guidelines, preferably with examples available?</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://www.pythonsecurity.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pythonsecurity.org/</a> appears to be focused security concerns in Python itself and on building an alternative Python binary to resolve these.  A noble, but not recently active, cause.  I'm looking for something that gives guidance to developers on what not to do and what to do instead.</p>
