Hey Varun
Its very nice to see your article and found it very interesting though. Please can you explain me BLOB in detail and let me have some more details about the Authentication procedures and any site which is vulnerable to this type of threat.

Hi Akshay,
BLOB is a binary large object that can hold variable amount of data. You can write it to the database as either binary or character data.
If it is stored as text, you can pass it as a string parameter. However, if it is stored in binary format, you can pass an array of type "byte" as a binary parameter.
Regards,
Varun

Interesting article..
Will the BLOB approach be slower than a file system based approach?
