It may. IME, "all-in-one" products usually integrate the pieces well. On the other claw, they don't tend to do most, if any, of the pieces well. On the third hand, "integration" doesn't have to mean they're no longer "separate". They can "play nicely together" if they adhere to relevant standards for interoperability. Witness how you can develop a lot of software without leaving Emacs, or Eclipse. However, I don't think that's all that relevant to software security in particular, as opposed to software development in general. -Dave -- Dave Aronson "Specialization is for insects." -Heinlein Work: http://www.davearonson.com/ Play: http://www.davearonson.net/ _______________________________________________ Secure Coding mailing list (SC-L) SC-L@securecoding.org List information, subscriptions, etc - http://krvw.com/mailman/listinfo/sc-l List charter available at - http://www.securecoding.org/list/charter.php SC-L is hosted and moderated by KRvW Associates, LLC (http://www.KRvW.com) as a free, non-commercial service to the software security community. _______________________________________________
