Not so much a question as a pleasant observation.

I'm just finishing off a project built on CakePHP 3.0 beta using the ACL 
and Security components amongst others. As the site called for super tight 
security (it's a payment gateway of sorts) I had it penetration tested. The 
site accepts posts via http and even instructions via SMS messages - so 
there's plenty of potential for vulnerabilities. After ~49,000 tests it 
reported only 16 red issues, 11 of which related to either Apache or 
PHPMyAdmin and the remaining five don't present an actual risk to the site 
or server; they are potential cross site scripting risks that could be used 
to expose cookies on the user's machine.

I'd like to pat myself on the back and say these results were down to my 
brilliant coding, but in fairness all I did was use the tools at my 
disposal. So thanks and well done to the core developers for delivering an 
outstanding toolset.
