## What it is
A curated awesome-list of PHP security resources, including tools for static analysis, framework hardening, vulnerability advisories, and educational material. It is maintained under the GuardRails.io organization and inspired by the awesome-list format.

## Use cases
- find static analysis tools for PHP security
- learn about PHP application security best practices
- discover tools to check composer dependencies for known vulnerabilities
- find PHP hacking playgrounds for security training
- harden a PHP web framework against common attacks
- find guides on securing PHP applications

## When to choose
- you need a starting point to discover PHP security tooling and learning material
- you are building a DevSecOps pipeline for PHP projects and want tool options
- you want a quick reference of PHP vulnerability databases and advisories

## When to avoid
- you need an actual security tool rather than a list of links
- you need security resources for a language other than PHP
- you expect actively maintained software with releases and support

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, vulnerability-scanning, developer-tools
- domain: security, awesome-lists, developer-tools, web-development
- platform: php
- tags: awesome-list, php-security, curated-resources, application-security, devsecops, php
