directory and file access for modules containing sensitive informationby silent11 (Vicar) |

silent11 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I use the below module as a layer of security between my database accessing perl scripts and potential trouble makers. I'm sure there are better ways to implement this, however this is what I use. My question is regarding the directory and file permissions of the module and the directory containing the module. What settings would be the most secure. This will be hosted on a shared UNIX hosting provider. Currently both file and directory are set at 755. Thanks.
If there are safer means of accomplishing this ( removing user and pass info out of the script ) please mention them. -silent11
