Thanks Zangeel, that security "checklist" is OK, but it is very basic and doesn't include everything that I'm looking for (from memory -- of course, if I remembered everything, I would just make my own list!)...and, also, I was a little unclear in what I was looking for: I'm looking for "advanced" security guidelines as well as "advanced" coding guidelines in general ("advanced" including basic as well as more sophisticated measures)...and the list need not expound on every technique -- just list them (makes it easier to audit my applications in true checklist fashion), and include everything. You might almost describe the checklist as a coding guidelines (including security guidelines) "cheat sheet"...

Again, I wish I had made a copy of what I was using earlier, but alas it appears to be gone forever. It was a tool that I used to audit my work against a loooong list of general coding and security guidelines, covering the gamut of proper coding, site/app deployment, and security techniques. I'd even be willing to pay for something like this if I could find what I was looking for...
