I wrote a book with viega a few years ago called "building secure software"...it was not about that company (at all).
Software security: building security in. gem P.s.

If you really want to compress that to bumper-sticker size, how about "Secure Software: Does what it's meant to. Period." This encompasses both "can't be forced NOT to do what it's meant to do", and "can't be forced to do what it's NOT meant to do". Also note, however, that "Secure Software" is the name of a company (which I used to work for). Dunno how picky they may get about possible trademark (service mark?) infringement, though IMHO they'd probably just love the free publicity. ;-) -Dave _______________________________________________ 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This electronic message transmission contains information that may be confidential or privileged.
