Are there any industry metrics that indicate what percentage of full-time software developers actually learned coding in a university setting? I actually learned in high-school, focused on business administration in college (easiest major on the planet) and learned/matured on the job. Likewise, I also am surrounded by many folks who have been in IT for say 30 or so years that learned coding from those infomercial type schools you see on TV late at night. So, the question of whether trade schools should teach secure coding should be asked as well. ************************************************************ This communication, including attachments, is for the exclusive use of addressee and may contain proprietary, confidential and/or privileged information.
