One of the general patterns I noted while providing feedback to the OWASP Top Ten listserv is that top ten lists do sort differently. Within an enterprise setting, it is typical for enterprise applications to be built on Java, .NET or other compiled languages where as if I were doing an Internet startup I may leverage more scripting approaches. So, if different demographics have different behaviors what would a converged list or even a separate list tell us? ************************************************************ This communication, including attachments, is for the exclusive use of addressee and may contain proprietary, confidential and/or privileged information.
