Now back to the interview...
With computer security in the news, Michael Smith decided to talk with Matt
Liotta about his CFUN-04 presentation on "Security".
Michael Smith: Why is security important for programmers? Isn't this a network
administrator subject?
Matt Liotta: Well if there are any administrators in the attendance I am sure
they will benefit from this presentation. However, this presentation is really
meant for programmers. How we write code makes a big difference in the overall
security of an application. Unfortunately, many programmers miss the potential
security problems in their applications simply because they don't know any
better. Or worse, they go to extraordinary lengths in the name of security only
to miss subtle exploits that invalidate all their work.
MS: That sounds like a lot of work!
ML: Great security takes a lot of work, but good security can be achieved with a
little insight...
