Re: Why TCP is more secure than UDP?

You can read the RFC for this, but I think that the point is not
security,. TCP is conection based and UDP is conectionless


When you initiate a TCP transfer after every packet that is sent ans
acknowledge one is needed from the receiver, with UDP this is nos
necessary, that is the difference between this protocols.

It is said that UDP is considered more vulnerable to spoofing than TCP?

Can anyone point me to any document/link which describes TCP is more secure than UDP
