Yes, all software has potentially exploitable flaws. The industry human error bug rate is between 5 and 50 bugs for every 1000 lines of source code. A security conscious programmer can reduce that to less than 5 per 1000. In companies where security is not part of the development process you will see the higher end of the scale.
The problem is with how programmers are taught in the first place. This is where good practices are seeded or not.
The second issue is vendors who demand a sritten-in-stone deadline to ship the usually unfinished product. Thus the patches that quickly follows initial publication. This is the key problem in insecure software. Vendors/publishers treat software development as an industrial process, but the reality is that it is a very creative process that does not conform well to deadlines. - Posted by: cburgess Posted on: 10/27/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
